General Politics Discussion (XI) [ARCHIVED] World • Page 1075

Oh fuck oh fuck. I have seen John Cusack's 2012 I know what this means.

 

In his tenure as president Trump did nothing remotely as evil as Biden’s record.

Biden paid for, and provided military support for the ongoing genocide in Gaza. He gave Israelis political immunity while they killed in unprecedented ways. Harris aided and abetted those crimes with gusto. What she has done, materially makes her worse than Trump.

We have to recognise that actual deeds matter more than hypotheticals - maybe Trump would have been worse - we don’t know, we know that Biden/Harris actually were.

Any freak pretending that the Democrats are the “lesser evil” can only do so if they also don’t think Palestinians are fully human. Sorry.

 

Not downplaying the depravity of Biden enabling a genocide in Gaza, but Trump's catastrophic response to the Covid crisis caused tens of thousands of unnecessary deaths throughout the US; both presidents were equally evil, but in different ways

 

tbf Biden’s response to covid also allowed tens of thousands of unnecessary deaths but also tbf there’s no doubt Trump would have provided the same support to Israel and probably more. We already saw Trump support Israel in pretty much every way it wanted and he cut aid to Palestine

 

One, fuck this guy, and two, hopefully the Harris campaign realizes what a gigantic own goal picking this guy would be.

edit: actual article. Potential VP paying what was or will look like a hush money settlement should make him a nonstarter

Josh Shapiro’s office quietly settled harassment claim

 

Kelly's stock just rose

 

jfc just this online vetting of Shapiro is showing what a fraud he is. I used to like him as AG because he took on fracking in some ways but he’s even backed down from that since he became governor

 

I mean we also seem to be forgetting Trump’s foreign policy and who he was cozying up to or supplying weapons to lol.



And this was just conventional air strikes in two countries worth of data, not even drone strike data. Pretty sure the data looks like this in a bunch of other countries too. Somalia was a big one during Trump admin I know. Ngl kinda gotta laugh at “materially worse than Trump” there

 

Once you understand the US is not a government that runs nonstop wars, but a nonstop war that runs a government, it starts to make sense why every elected official has their hands soaked in blood.

 

That CNN clip of the anchors explaining Brat is one of the most insane things I have ever watched. Them calling “aesthetic,” a Gen Z word; describing the color as “chartreuse,” etc.

 

All presidents are murderers.

 

I mean, Hillary wanted to shoot down Russian planes in Syria. I don’t think that would’ve helped these numbers very much

 

In Secret Goldman Sachs Speech, Hillary Clinton Admitted No-Fly Zone Would "Kill a Lot of Syrians"

 

Just wondering, what did Harris do to aid and abet? I honestly don't know what she could have done as a vice president. Did she vocally speak in support of it?

 

Idk what I’m missing; why would Pritzker not be one of the better choices for VP?
