Not to excuse the fault the democrats and especially Biden has on the situation in Gaza, but “don’t both sides” this shit.

Not only is “but Trump” an actual valid argument for about a million issues, Trump would absolutely steamroll the genocide in Gaza to even worse metrics. So not even in that 1 metric are the republicans a better option

You act like the US political system hasn't been a choice between the lesser of two evils for many decades.

Sure, Harris's stance on the issue isn't ideal, but Trump's solution is to nuke Gaza.

Literal Genocide

All of Gaza flattened, Rafah "red line" vanished

Harris position is not ideal

By the way Trump has never said he would nuke Gaza. This is a made up Blue MAGA narrative to pretend Harris is a lesser evil. Trump would do exactly what Biden and Harris are doing right now.

Erm akshurally its not called Fascism, its called Fascism Lite™ and it's totally different. Also its not called genocide its called protecting our allies and upholding international law 🤓

Y'know... If I were just a liiittle bit more paranoid, this would start looking like it's all planned out. Make the other guy so bad that people will basically have to choose between 'mild' genocide and a complete lunatic who wants to create a Theo-Fascistic Middle Ages kingdom.

I'm honestly not chipping into the debate, firstly because this particular moral quandary is a Kobayashi Maru type deal, secondly because I'm not American so it's not my place. Just random thoughts...

You think it's all a ruse to do more genocide? Why would they need a smoke screen for that? Why assume it has anything to do with Israel when we have no shortage of problems within the country that both sides would like us to ignore?

I honestly have no idea what the ultimate machinations behind such a plan would be, I don't even believe that's necessarily the case, just something which strikes me as almost so ridiculously bad, that it has to be fake. Maybe I'm just an optimist, hell if I know...

But to give into flights of fancy, one of the reasons why I could see someone wanting to prolong a massive conflict (maybe even two!) would be to sell weapons and generally implements of war. Would track with past behaviour. I'm sure there are plenty of other imaginable economic and political reasons, but that's beyond speculation.

They did start selling weapons to any citizen who can enter a store, ask, and pay for one while there were no conflicts quite on this scale going on, which may or may not be just a coincidence. Again, haven't the foggiest and this is all in good... uuh... fun, I guess.

Didn't the cheeto say we should nuke Gaza?

Doesn't matter what trump says, OP prefers them to others.

No Trump never said that. Blue MAGA makes up imaginary Trump quotes to pretend Harris is the lesser evil.

Trump will just send bombs to israel for the Genocide like Harris and Biden.
