1, Biden did not say that. He said he would veto anything that undermined the security of extent Medicare provisions.

  1. Can you give me any examples of Obama "keeping Netanyahu on a leash?" It's rather difficult to compare the situation under Obama to under Biden, during which Israel saw the largest slaughter of it's civilians at the hands of Hamas. While Biden could and should have been more proactive in opposing Netanyahu, acting as though he could just say, "Stop" is ridiculous, especially when you can't point to how Obama actually did it.

  2. Again, how, specifically?

  3. Biden got the Afghanistan pull out dropped on him by Trump.

  4. lol Biden invested trillions in helping hurt by COVID financially. All this proves is you have never actually read a bill he signed.

  5. I defy you to find me one sitting member of Congress who supports school busing.

  6. And yet Obama still signed a compromise fiscal bill.

  7. Locking down the border and providing a legal pathway to citizenship are not mutually exclusive. Again showing how little actual research you've done into Biden's policies.

  8. He increased police funding because that is what most people want. Treating it as being mutually exclusive with civil rights is ridiculous, especially when you can't point to anything Obama did to cut police funding.

  9. Biden was President during challenges to NATO not seen since the end of the Cold War. Frankly, Obama's cuts reflect how unprepared he was to deal with Putin's moves in eastern Europe which were telegraphed even at that stage.

So, the only actual difference you can point to is military spending, which fails to account for the change in geopolitics. Busing doesn't count because it stopped being an issue before Obama was old enough to run for Congress.

And yet more than half backed Trump, by far the more pro-Israel candidate.

Not favoring Israel's behavior is not the same thing as not supporting Israel existing.

And yet two thirds of Americans supported the most pro-Israel candidate we've ever had.

The youth never show.

And the "pro-war crowd" is larger than the "anti-war crowd" where it comes to Israel.

Those weird little smiles she draws really freak me out.

What makes you think that?

What evidence do you have?

The fact a bunch of people on Twitter said it doesn't mean it's a 1:1 ratio to voting.

All the polls agree people lean more towards Israel than Palestine. Particularly in swing states like Ohio and Pennsylvania.

I had an idea for a story about Steampunk Radical Reconstruction in 1880s and some of the characters I imagined looked like him, but with a top hat.

They can appeal while detained. That is different from being picked up on the street and sent to another country, no courts, no lawyers, no nothing.

Why is it laughable? Jews and Poles had no rights. The ultimate goal was their extermination. Anything else was just for convenience or to keep from clogging the arteries of genocide by sending too many at once.

The really frightening thing is that our government thought this would go differently.

This is why I'm hesitant to believe the tariffs will be the death knell of MAGA.

It might be enough to get the idiots who voted for him because they don't understand how markets work and blamed Biden, but these committed idiots will look the truth in the face and spit in it's eye because it doesn't line up with what they've committed themselves to.

Maybe I'm pessimistic. We've got almost four full years and the one thing this idiot has been committed to where it comes to economics is tariffs, namely on the biggest producer of our shit and that's a long time to be paying a thousand dollars for a cellphone, but I have really lost faith in the ability of human beings to put narrow self interest over blind prejudice.

"Encountered."

A word that is nowhere in the article or any of those it links to defined.

I did. Your whole fucking argument is essentially that Democrats should embrace beliefs which are even less popular than the ones they already have and that will somehow lead them to win.
