These are people who would have never, ever voted for Trump, but billions of dollars are being spent by the Democrats to slaughter our loved ones and our families. Israel has been decimating south Lebanon, where many of our relatives live, and now this administration is deploying US troops to the Middle East. Not exactly a winning strategy if they actually want our votes.

Some people think of a Trump vote as a protest vote. I have heard arguments being made along the lines of “Trump is not the person who is committing the genocide right now” or “Well, we didn’t have any wars under Trump”. I personally disagree with this, and consider Trump to be a fascist and fearmonger who deeply traumatised our communities during his presidency. He was a hateful leader who slammed the door on refugees by implementing a Muslim ban. While he didn’t start any wars, he did escalate existing wars in the Middle East and vetoed a series of bipartisan bills that aimed at prohibiting arms sales to Saudi Arabia.

    Weapons grade stupidity is believing there’s something Biden/Harris are doing to hold Israel back.

      Did someone suggest she would? I don’t know why you are bringing up Biden here, in case you missed it, he’s not up for election. Anyway, what I said was, whatever Harris would do if elected, Trump will do far, far worse.

        Trump can’t create more tanks and bombs out of thin air.

        Former GOP presidents Bush and Reagan kept Israel from carrying out a genocide, so there’s a precedent for trying the other side of the aisle.

        There’s worse than one country being given the weapons to bomb the civilians of another country?

          Yes. He can and will give them more weapons. He will help them expand their war into even more nations in the region. Do you really think that the current situation is the worst it could be?

            I think that innocent people being killed and nothing being done about it is around the worst it can be for the victims and those who loved them, yes.
