'cept the entire tankieverse saying that you shouldn't vote for Biden (later Harris) because they're the ones causing the genocide in Gaza. Like yes, they did jack all to fix it, but we all knew Trump would be even worse. Telling that to just about any tankie resulted in "How can it get any worse than genocide? Voting for Biden/Harris means you voted for genocide" or something along those lines.
Didn't take very long for Trump to go "lol Gaza is prime beachfront property tho, let's get em fuckers out" after he got his throne back.
Two different topics. Giving billions of dollars and unlimited diplomatic backup vs giving billions of dollar and unlimited diplomatic backup. There is nothibg different when it comes to gaza. But i never saw people here saying trump would be better for american
It's less that anyone said he'd be better for Americans and more that everyone said don't vote for Harris, while Trump received no criticism. Getting dem voters to stay home is an old old republican strategy and the tankies definitely helped.
