Biden didn’t stop Israel. That was bad.

Biden actively aided Israel.

But otherwise, he did well.

But other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?

One thing to understand is that the Dems haven’t had fillibuster-proof control of the gov

They didn't need a filibuster-proof majority to keep playing arms dealer for a genocide. Just for stuff they didn't want to do, like the things they promised when they were trying to get elected.

It sure is a good thing Trump hasn't been even worse when it comes to Israel's aggression. We sure fixed things by allowing Trump to win!

When the only 2 options have bad positions on Israel, then Israel is no longer an issue to consider in the election.

And for the umpteenth time, I voted for harris.

You don't have to convince me that trump was worse. I'm already there. But expecting enough voters to win to be willing to go along with genocide was a hard sell for too many voters. Centrists lost. You don't show open contempt for the voters like that and expect it to not be mutual. Try solidarity with someone other than netanyahu next time, if the fallout from the party's disgusting servility to a genocidal madman hasn't wrecked that forever.
