Counterargument: If the democrats don’t want to lose they should stop funding mass genocide.

To be fair the GOP would happily fund it too

Hey, only if it doesn’t conflict with Putin’s goals.

How can anyone think that Trump wouldn’t support it. If anything, he would call the IDF a bunch of pussies for not bombing Gaza even harder.

That’s not the point. People aren’t saying that they’d rather have Trump in charge. The point is things will never get better if everyone keeps unquestioningly giving their votes to the Democrats regardless of how little the democrats represent their interests. The only real way most people have of making a political party change is by withholding their votes until that party changes in order to regain the votes.

Trump would denounce Israel, even as a lie, to win the White House.

This is not a winnable situation. This is a two party system with a lesser of two evils option.

But we cannot consistently remain on the edge forever. If we pass over that line. And we have trump next year, it will be our last election.

We’ll either have a civil war and finally revise the system or end up like Russia.

Alternatively we can stay on the edge a little longer and build up a different strategy. Maybe A third party that only runs non-president candidates nationwide. Running in off elections and non-presidential yearsto gain seats and national trust. Maybe reforming local laws to make PACS less effective to avoid situations like the current one.

It’ll be slow and not ideal, but it’s a better chance at improving things then flipping the switch and having the dictatorship now.

Either way Palestinians die because we don’t get a say in that. And to end off this little rant.

Biden is enabling the genocide because his PACs have his hands tied. Trump would be cheering on the genocide because his PACS and his base would support him for it.
