On reflection they probably mean Donald would ensure Ukraine is taken over, which is true. I suppose that means delaying WWIII until Russia’s next invasion.
They must have forgotten Donald tweeting (nuclear?) threats at Iran from the Oval Office. Or they don’t think that would be a World War situation.
I think he was talking about big scary Pootin, threatening for the undecillionth time to push the big scary red button. Don’t think about Pootin being to scared to even call for a mobilization, just ignore that he’d rather throw north koreans into the meat grinder than his own voter base, because he’s scared of them. Just ignore that. Focus on that big red scary button. WW3 around the corner!
Ah yes Harris is totally working towards a ceasefire
Like the one that Hamas just rejected because it did not call for Israel to stop bombing or for it to withdraw troops or for Palestinians to be able to return to their homes
Yes definitely a ceasefire if you let one side keep bombing
Basically, Harris is a war hawk. When she accepted the DNC’s nomination, she promised America would have the world’s most lethal fighting force.
On Ukraine, when they were asked about it in the debate, Trump emphasized the need to negotiate peace. Harris emphasized unconditional support for Ukraine.
Yes, there’s not a lot of daylight between Trump and Harris’s statements on Israel. But Trump’s statements were made before the conflict escalated to involve Lebanon, and I’m not actually sure if he even means what he says. Harris has maintained her commitment to Israel as the conflict has escalated, and even as it has generated discord in her party. I definitely believe that her commitment to Israel is sincere.
On China, it’s hard to be certain about Harris’s personal views, but the Biden administration that she is part of has escalated tensions in the Taiwan Strait. Trump, in stark contrast, is reported to have questioned the value of supporting Taiwan at all. (I’m not saying the US should abandon efforts at maintaining peace in the Taiwan Strait. But the US should definitely not be escalating tensions either.) Right now there’s no reason to believe Harris differs from Biden on the issue, especially considering her hawkish tendencies elsewhere.
You are naive if you think giving countries who threaten war or even start them everything they want and more is going to decrease the chance of more of the same.
I said nothing about giving any country everything that they want.
And Biden had plenty of opportunity to de-escalate the situation in the Donbas before it resulted in war, and he escalated it instead, just as he escalated the situation in the Taiwan Strait.
Yet what you’re suggesting is to appease dictators whenever they issue threats and attack countries. Gee that worked so well with Georgia, Crimea, and now the rest. Putin is a war criminal, a crook and an incompetent statesman (see the deteriorating Russian economy years up until the Ukraine war). They were always going to steal land like the cancerous leech they really are.

No, I was suggesting to de-escalate tensions and resolve territorial disputes peacefully and democratically before they spill over into armed conflict.
I wouldn’t use the term “reasonable”, because I don’t think Trump’s positions are well-reasoned, or even well-informed. I think his foreign policy is one of apathy rather than one of enlightened peacekeeping.
But I’ll take that over Harris’s instinct for military aggression, especially with the world on the brink of WW3.
Some people are privileged enough where it doesn’t impact them either way, or are at least stupid enough not to notice
Everyone is going to be impacted by this election.
If Trump is elected, we’ll be on a path to dictatorship and civil war. If Harris is elected, we’re on a path to World War III.
No American is escaping the consequences of this one.
Nothing about this statement is even remotely true.
why does harris mean world war 3?
is it because of funneling weapons to israel? because trump has promised to do that too. and has also promised NOT to work for a ceasefire.

It could also be because the US is standing alone against more or less the entire world in supporting Israels genocide.

I love playing the uncompromising pacifist or vatniks game.
What does it tell you that those are the same side?
In what fucking world do people who unquestioningly believe Russian propaganda qualify as “uncompromising pacifists”?
I don’t actually know what vatnik means. I was guessing from context that it meant Communist or leftist or something.
I said nothing about giving any country everything that they want.

I wish he’d done more. Neither Russia or China or both of them combined would do well against the US, even without NATO. They wont start a conflict.
I suspect the opposite, but I’m hoping we never find out.
don’t you think it says something that this is the only excuse people who defend trump can come up with anymore
Oh, I’m not defending Trump. He’s terrible.
Yeah I really got that impression from your comment framing Trump’s stances on various wars as reasonable compared to Harris’s

Look how delusional you are. “Military aggression” for giving Ukraine the weapons it needs to defend itself from a foreign invader.
We’re on a path to WW3 anyway, trumps entire mandate from his handlers is to destabilize the US before things kick off so we’re in a weak position
So what you’re saying is Harris means Vulcans??
Not until 2063.
I’m expecting at least some rioting if Trump loses. Just stocked up on booze and popcorn so I can ride this week out.
Oh, it’s you again. Still shoving these baseless claims down everyone’s throats. Come now, my dude, we talked about this.
Who are you?
