“We recognize that, in the next four years, our decision may cause us to have an even more difficult time. But we believe that this will give us a chance to recalibrate, and the Democrats will have to consider whether they want our votes or not.”

That’s gotta be one of the strangest reasonings I’ve heard in a while.

    Yeah sorry these people are idiots and should be ignored. We are in a really dangerous position right now where we could still fall to fascism and need every blue vote we can.

    Do they honestly think that a Republican or Trump (who banned people from Muslim countries) aren’t gonna ban them too?

          It’s hardly possible to do worse than Genocide Joe who is fully funded and bought by the israeli lobby AIPAC.

          At worst Trump would have done the same as Biden.

              Trump would be better or the same for the Palestinians . Biden is a 100% israel drone fully owned by AIPAC. It’s quite impossible to do worse than Biden because Genocide Joe is all-in on Genocide. They’re talking about cutting off Ukraine to continue funding the israeli genocide.

              Reminder that israel had already killed more civilians than Putin did since the start of the Ukraine war. Biden is literally worse than Putin.

                I love how depending on who you talk to either us controls Israel or Israel controls us. People can’t make up their mind.

                Trump is the guy who moved the US embassy to Jerusalem and put bans on immigration from Muslim countries. He’s also the guy who’s talking about deporting Arabs even if they’re natural born.

                Get your head out of your ass

                  Israel controls the US through AIPAC.

                  If you vote for someone who isn’t owned by AIPAC then Israel wouldn’t control the US anymore.

                  It’s so simple isnt it? Now go out and vote for Genocide Joe again!

            It’s hardly possible to do worse

            There are about a million ways to do worse.

            For example, a U.S. president could send American ground troops into Gaza. Or recognize Gaza and the West Bank as Israeli territory. Or increase military aid to Israel tenfold. Or launch a preemptive military attack against Hezbollah. Or launch a ground attack against the Huthi rebels for firing rockets at Israel. Or increasing tensions with Iran for funding Hamas. Or round up suspected Hamas supporters in the U.S. and deport them. Or round up suspected Palestine supporters in the U.S. and hold them in indefinite detention. Or create a House Committee for Un-American Activities. Or bring back “enhanced interrogation” for questioning Americans suspected of un-American activities.

            The possibilities are really unlimited.

            This is like arguing that voting for Hitler as Reichskanzler wouldn’t be so bad, because at worst he would be doing the exact same thing as Kurt von Schleicher.

            But that’s the thing: things can always get worse. And Trump has proven time and time again that he’s willing to make things worse.

              America doesn’t have the money for any of that shit. They’re broke. If they had money they would have done all the things you said. America just can’t afford nor win an all out war because as soon as they get into one China takes Taiwan.

              Trump doesn’t have foreign policy. He is the guy that retreated from Afghanistan btw not Genocide Joe or Obomber. As long as he can slush a few million to Mar A Lago he doesn’t give a shit what happens elsewhere.
