That she would consider conditioning weapons sales. She hasn't even done that. There isn't one lousy photon of daylight between her and Biden, and there isn't a photon between him and Netanyahu.
You mean to tell me that "vote blue no matter who" only works one way? That it's only meant for progressives to show unconditional support to the pro-genocide anti-worker wing of the party, but that the very instant that centrists don't get 100% of everything they want for the first time ever, they immediately defect and become red capped trumpers?
And announces that she has a mandate to continue Biden's pro-genocide policies. Centrists rejoice.
Yeah. Netanyahu can't run in US elections.
“He’s doing a good job,” Trump saidabout the Israeli leader. “Biden is trying to hold him back, just so you understand, Biden is more superior to the VP. He’s trying to hold him back, and he probably should be doing the opposite, actually. I’m glad that Netanyahu decided to do what he had to do, but it’s moving along pretty good.”
I'm not sure why you're quoting trump here. I don't support him. Do you consider his words to be true or laudable? Do you just imagine that anyone who doesn't support genocide must be a trumper?
If you vote third party or don't vote, you support him.
You know this. You know the math. It has been explained to you dozens of times, and I will not waste my time further after this comment.
So I was correct in guessing what you wanted her to say? And my entire reply was about the probable outcome of that.
I was referring to centrist as those not strongly associated with either party. I despise the term "independents" as I think they are anything but. Basically the folks who see the Cheney endorsement and think "Maybe I can vote for Harris after all?" The 55 to 75 year olds who turn out in droves every election. And because of that, you need to get as many of them voting for you as possible to win.
Obviously you have no interest in discussing this rationally. Especially considering you then implied my top choice for US president would've been Netanyahu.
I laid out what I think would happen if Harris did what you wanted. You chose not to refute any of that. Or more likely - you couldn't.
So, want to try again or just throw more insults my way?
I applaud the effort, friend.. And I think it's good to continue having this discussion over and over and over, if only so others may see it and perhaps be swayed.
But... at some point in a thread, it's just not worth the time anymore. I actually believe it's a tactic, sort of like those scam-baiters who keep spam callers busy for as long as possible so as to prevent them from scamming others, even if just for an hour. They know how to push our buttons, and they want us to waste time and effort on a thoughtful reply knowing full well that they probably won't even read it...
But again, jokes on them, because the comments aren't for them.
You were not, but being incorrect in favor of Netanyahu and his genocide is basically what you do.
My position was:
Yours was:
I guess the only way you can falsely declare victory is if you lie about my position. That's fine. You and the straw version of me you've constructed can have fun in my absence.
