    If they convinced her to water it down then she’ll obviously deny it - there are very few situations in life where it is more beneficial to lie and then recant instead of telling the truth from the start… it makes you look wishy-washy.

    But if this is true I hope she sacks whatever political consultant pushed for this (or introspects). If she personally believes in a much harsher stance against Netanyahu then she’s doing herself a political disservice by not expressing that.

    It’s just so hard to choose between the guy who made sure the messaging is the same across the administration and the other guy who thought we need to introduce full genocide in Gaza. How will we in the US be able to pick who is better this fall???

    So uh, just to be clear, I’m joking. Trump is terrible and this shouldn’t eve be an issue.

      Because Trump endorses overt racism and will try to push for abortion restrictions that will murder women in America that might be your sister, mother, daughter, or cousin.

      This isn’t a hard fucking choice. Neoliberalism is awful but it’s a hell of a lot better than a theocratic state run by a douchebag that can’t stop himself from talking about how fond he is of authoritarianism, how he’ll persecute political opponents for purely political reasons, and how he’ll forgive and honor insurrectionists purely because they’re on his side. He’s started calling Jan 6th terrorists “hostages” and openly discussed pardons.

      Trump isn’t an option unless you’ve bought into the misinformation.

      Literally nobody brought up Trump but you.

      Its wild that critiques of Biden/Harris somehow always get whataboutismed.

      Yes, Trump sucks major ass. Worst POS on the planet. But why does that need said here?
