"Despite these polls and the passions raised by the war with Hamas, it is easy to exaggerate the power of Gaza as a motivating issue for voters eight months from no-win November. History suggests that foreign policy issues end up as a minor motif in presidential politics unless American soldiers are dying in combat as they were in Iraq and Afghanistan in 2004.”

    I could say the same thing for people who championed Hilary, and still champion Hilary and push her political ideals.

    Did any of them take accountability and say “that was really dumb of me. I should have listened to democrats who warned me. I am responsible for Trump.”

    Nope. You’re still here going “and I’ll fuckin’ do it again.”

      The difference is that I encounter people frequently here who talk like they learned nothing about why you often have to vote for the lesser evil, whereas basically the only time I hear anything about championing Hillary, it’s by people like you positing this hypothetical person that you attack.
