      Not sure if I am angry, or just resigned that we will always have Trump like figures in office so that some voters can feel morally superior.

      I personally think the moral thing to do it vote for the first comic if that is the choice on election day. In reality no 2028 Dem candidate will be like Biden on foreign affairs, and there will be much more accountability if Dems simply take the House and Senate compared with zero accountability on foreign affairs today.

        Kamala ran on having the same policies as Biden. What makes you think the next one won’t?

            Yeah, Kamala, the candidate who had the entire DNC apparatus working all the tricks of the trade in order for her to get the nomination, that one. What makes you think the next candidate won’t also be a ghoul?

              Because no one could possibly be as poor a candidate as Kamala. You make it sound like a neoliberal conspiracy…what I remember was desperation and incompetence.

              Once again. Your reasoning is why I am fully prepared to have Trump’s entire family run the country for a couple decades, give Israel open reign to do whatever they want, and for a bunch of non-voters pretending to care about Palestinians continue to sabotage themselves.

              70% of Democrats want to stop funding Israel. Trump fights Benjamin Netanyahu’s wars for him. But they are exactly the same.

                  How can you compare anyone to Kamala, a person who has never held real power. I can’t tell you if Newsome would be better than a fictional Kamala presidency, but I can say with certainty: millions of lives a year throughout the world would be saved if Newsome was president instead of Trump. But somehow they are all the same. It’s a ridiculous premise.

                    He’s the governor of California, so he does have real power. He also openely abandond his voters as soon as he was elected. He’s a zionist. He did photo-ops while destroying people’s homes.

                    …I can say with certainty: millions of lives a year throughout the world would be saved if Newsome was president instead of Trump.

                    Where’s the evidence of this? All evidence points to Newsome gleefully operating the orphan-crushing machine, just like Biden and Obama did.

                    Because I saw enough Newsome interviews to see how much of a terrible politicians he is with zero convictions and not being even able to hide that fact

                Which dems have sufficiently different positions on foreign affairs?

                70% of Democrats want to stop funding Israel. Trump fights Benjamin Netanyahu’s wars for him. But they are exactly the same.

                USian dems have always been zionist, and they were no less enthusiastic about this than the current USian administration.
                What are these mythical dems that supposedly want to stop applying Pissrael?

                  I have no idea what your cute nicknames are referring to. Sufficiently different opinion? Literally everyone who didn’t want to go to war for Benjamin Netanyahu…which is everyone but Trump. Or how about anyone not dumb enough to send their son in law to solve middle easy peace. Night and day difference to anyone paying attention.

                    Biden-Harris administration was very willing to go to that ‘war’ (i.e. the genocide). Last I checked, they were not Trump.

                    Also, why single out Netanyahu? Do you think that the genocide started with him, or that other parts of the Pissraeli government somehow don’t support the genocide?

      Republicans are libs too, in that they too support the continuation of the child crusher that is capitalist hegemony. Leftism begins with anti-capitalism. The US has two pro-capitalist parties with different branding, much like Pepsi and Coke.

        Sorry, but to have them understand better it’s better to have them understand in burger talk

        So imagine Mcdonalds and Burger King…

        With themselves, even. Republicans let it out, liberals make a perverse game of almost never letting it out.
