If you still think it was the funny laugh and not the years of being a crooked cop and enthusiastic support for a genocide, you have chosen not to understand the people you want to put down. It's not that you're confused, you're just an asshole.

You have 179 days to find a candidate to support that isn't horrible. Maybe at least try this time? Or don't whinge when the people whose vote you deliberately decided you don't need in order to win don't vote for your candidate and they don't win.

    You’re going to break an arm jerking yourself off that hard.

    I remember asking my mother in the days before the election if she really thought the Democratic party leadership was willing to sacrifice America just insulate Israel from consequences and she just couldn't wrap her mind around the idea that Israel and Palestine was a big deal because it just didn't show up in her news that much...

    "I don't think everybody's as plugged into the news as You are 'Faithful' I don't think that's as big a deal as you seem to think it is.".

    That's when I knew we were doomed.

    She should have come out publicly against Israel's behavior and said she was willing to rein them in. That was the minimum she should have done. Anybody telling her otherwise was willing to sacrifice America for Israel.

    Israel was the litmus test. Can you call water wet? Is the sky blue? Is genocide wrong? Can we stop funding it?

    Her failure to do this was a failure not a difference of opinion. Whoever the next candidate is is going to need to acknowledge the reality of the world and that might mean removing the Zionist lobby from the conversation entirely by force if necessary.
