What's to like? The dude had zero consistent opinions and just kinda said whatever he thought would get him the most political capital in a given interview. How could anyone like him when none actually knew him?

[–] EtAl@lemmy.dbzer0.com 23 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Literally, the one, singular good thing about him was he supported Ukraine.

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 23 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Hey, he also died way younger than McConnell and trump. So two things.

[–] EtAl@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 week ago

Agreed. Two things.

And that was just a side effect of being pro war. Selling weapons to Ukraine.

He was incredibly consistently pro-war.

He was also pro-war-crime. He was ultra-proud of the US bombing Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and for that matter, Tokyo.

It was his justification for letting Israel kill whoever they wanted for any reason.

So he's Holden bloodfeast.

But with views like that he was elected President twice.

Oh. You mean Lindsey Graham.
