“We recognize that, in the next four years, our decision may cause us to have an even more difficult time. But we believe that this will give us a chance to recalibrate, and the Democrats will have to consider whether they want our votes or not.”

That’s gotta be one of the strangest reasonings I’ve heard in a while.

    But I can totally understand people who can’t bring themselves to vote for someone actively supporting a genocide. Something that Trump didn’t do during his tenure in office.

    Trump was trying to oppress them personally. Maybe sympathy for those suffering a genocide is more important to them than their own safety, but maybe it shouldn’t be.

    Also, do you really think Trump wouldn’t support Israel killing every last Palestinian they could?

        The Muslim ban was only oppressing foreign Muslims trying to enter the USA.

        It did not directly oppress US citizens who were Muslim

        Oh, so just the families of those citizens. Gotcha. I’m sure Trump won’t do worse next time.

        Also, that isn’t all he did. He wanted a national registry of Muslim-Americans, for example.

        Please, explain to me how doing that wouldn’t be oppressing them.
