    Wasn’t that the point? They knew both sides would be pro Israel and sent a message that without more Palestinian support, the Dems wouldn’t just get their vote.

    It worked, the Dems have been nothing but shocked and aghast at the outcome. Now the pro- Palestine base are hoping the Dems turn against Israel for the 2026 election to win back their vote.

    …the Dems won’t, by the way. They might pay more lip service to it, but they’ll never be anti-Israel.

      Ha ha ha ha! You think there’s still going to be a Palestine in 2028! Huckster McJesusremoved is going to help Bibi complete the genocide.

      Dems aren’t shocked. Dem voters were repeating at every opportunity that things would be worse under Trump.

      I think we’re just suspect of people who say they’re pro Palestine and then act to worsen their situation.

      You showed the Dems tho!

          If Palestine was a breaking point and Trump better aligned with your morals, your moral compass is fucked.

      You will see what the point is when Israel permanently occupies the West Bank and Gaza and starts the real genocide.

        Gaza has already been flattened and its people have been psychologically tortured into being unable to fight back.

        This genocide is already well underway, not “about to start”.
