I don’t so I didn’t vote for him. But I wasn’t going to vote for the party that enabled the past 400 days of genocide and then sent Bill Clinton to explain to voters in Michigan how 40,000 dead Palestinians is not enough, either.

Defending the economy when we all know our paychecks are shrinking relative to rising costs wasn't a wise move by the Democrats. The Republicans didn't offer any sane and sensible solutions, scapegoating immigrants is absurd, but they acknowledged that the economy isn't doing well for a lot of people and that actually resonated with many.

A millennia old Arabic saying goes something like: "If you honor the generous, you will own him... but if you honor the ignoble, he will rebel." We all know leading through example is wasted on people like Trump.

The Babylon Bee is unfunny right wing trash, but the Democrats walked right into this one. You can't tell us Trump is a threat to democracy and then peacefully transfer power to him.

“If you were able to overlook a genocide and cast a vote for Harris, you already know how a conservative was able to overlook Trump ’s extremism and vote for him.” -- Historian Robin D.G. Kelley

The Democrats had 4 years to do something about it and didn't. "Vote for us or else" is not a long term strategy, all it takes is losing one or two elections.

Other countries are reporting different and positive results. I think this is the kind of thing that we will see the outcome of decades later. It will be interesting to see how much of the perceived negative impact is due to ingrained racism and xenophobia especially in the West.

The world will be split between countries that trade freely with China and countries that don't.

This will be the test and control for whether trading with China is good or bad.

The livestreamed genocide that Biden enabled and Harris defended is Kremlin disinformation?

 

O'odham Woman Becomes Hero When Genocide Joe Comes to Town

By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, Oct. 25, 2024

"In the #GilaRiver Indian Community today, Biden claimed to be issuing an apology to #NativeAmerican children who were victims of U.S. #BoardingSchools. His glory campaign was short-lived.

"As Biden spoke, an O'odham woman held up this sign: 'There Are Still Babies in Mass Graves. Your Apology Means Nothing!! #LandBack!'

"Calling out to Biden, she said, 'What about the people in #Gaza! What about the people in #Palestine?'

"'How can you apologize for a #genocide while actively committing a genocide in Palestine! #FreePalestine.'

"Security removed her."
