I'll put this right here:

"If 50,000 Palestinians dead under the rubble isn't enough to sway me from Democratic Party, I don't know what is," Afarajalla said.

Oh man, to be a voter who didn't vote for Harris because she didn't go to war with Israel must feel great rn.

I would feel like Trump coming out and being honest with his intentions is not worse than the Democrats sending Matt Miller out to lie through his smirking teeth. I would also feel that it's good that liberals are actually opposing the USs actions in Gaza now, rather than denying and defending them under Biden. Oh, and I would be happy that Trump actually ordered a ceasefire, something the Democrats were unwilling to do.

Well, i guess as long as they're honest about it, its fine.

It's more than the Democrats could manage.

A choice between a slow genocide and a fast genocide is no choice at all.

And so far Trump has been the slower genocide.
