Showing Original Post only (View all)There can't be any crying about Gaza now if you weren't fully on board with Joe and Kamala... [View all]
At the time, the choice (and the ramifications) were clear. Joe's behind the scenes negotiations eventually led to a peace deal. Kamala would have kept the peace. Trump has always made clear his intentions of doing away with any two state solution. If you railed against Joe and/or Kamala for their measured stance on Gaza, if you were so impatient that you were willing to divide the Party over this single issue, then you helped get us to where we are today.

Nobody said you aren't free to make stupid voting decisions. But, crying about the ramifications is hypocritical.

Given an opportunity to choose from two "evils", too many people picked the greater one.

Found out today that some protesters at the DNC were local homeless people from Texas. They were paid to go there.
