        I believe he would have responded roughly the same.

        I also believe he would have fumbled the delicate balance Biden is trying to strike, where he has been able to protect and support Israel without provoking a wider conflict. Trump isn’t exactly a strategic statesman. Under Trump, Israel would have found itself facing total isolation from the West and a rapidly escalating conflict with all of its neighbors in the region. Whether that would result in Israel backing down with their tail between their legs or WW3 is hard to say.

        I’m not voting for Trump, though. I don’t want either Biden or Trump. I want to kill myself. At least that way my vote counts.

      And continuing Trump’s immigration policy, crushing unions, building the border wall, etc.

      Remember folks this is what he promised us. Nothing has fundamentally changed.

        Crushing unions? Didn’t he personally go to a union strike before to show his support?

            That’s some first class segregation politics behavior you’re showing there. It’s hard to take you serious from now on.

                Someone that just asked a simple question with the intention of being educated, and not to be immediately pushed into some political group the poster looks down on, and where the intention was nothing more but: you bad, we good. That’s just completely ridiculous, without knowing anything about a) my intention and b) my background.

                I did appreciate the link that was mentioned

                  you fuckin called me a segregationist for showing you a link from Biden literally shutting down a strike. Please fuck all the way off.

                  Biden was literally pro segregation.

                  Also the link that you “appreciate” contradicts everything you said.

                  Again and I will continue to repeat this: Go. Fuck. Yourself.

                  Edit: sorry mods, I can’t be civil with someone trying to gaslight me.

                I’ve got a good goddamn guess; it’s eight letters long, starts with a ‘C’, and ends with an ‘rs’.

      You put down half a thought. So what are you going to do, vote for an actual fascist or not vote so that an actual fascist wins?

        I was going to vote for Biden but now I won’t because you acted with such brutal incivility. This is the most important election of our lives; democracy itself is on the ballot and you are turning people away from the polls before they’ve even opened. You are handing Trump the keys to the White House; you are ushering in the dark tide of fascism. Enjoy the next election, you have made it our last.

            What’s the matter, peckerwood; don’t like you guys’s favorite thought-terminators getting flippantly flung back in your face? Gee, who’d have fucking thought?

            Understand, if the choice is between genocidal crypto-fascism and genocidal fascism-obvious, I have no issue with watching your country die instead. Better we go out than the whole rest of the world under our boot. I would rather die, and I would rather we as a collective fell, than ever support another fascist for any fucking reason.

              I don’t tend to let people insult me then attempt to influence me. Learn a little about the art of persuasion and try again. Also, get a grip. This isn’t Facebook or Reddit. Try not to act like those people.

                Was it the term “peckerwood” that you found insulting? Would being referred to as “crackkker” hurt your feewings as much?

                  As a proud Biden supporter, I know two things: 1. 2024 is the most important election of our lives and we must do anything and everything to maximize the voter turnout for Biden, even If it means reaching out to our political enemies and making unsavory compromises; and 2. If you don’t immediately agree to vote for Biden then you’re just a fucking [slur, slur, slur] and I’m going to go out of my way to antagonize and alienate you and anyone else who may be reading these threads – that’s called the art of persuasion!

                    Just like 2020, 2016, 2012, 2008, and 2004 before it
