If only the sitting Democrat president could show the same sense of urgency about housing and feeding Americans as he shows about shielding Israelies from consequence.

Or for that matter its duties under international treaties to stop genocide.

The US just needs to stop actively funding and supporting the genocide, not even stop the genocide itself.

Though ig it's a moot point since "israel" would quickly stop being able to continue it if the US support is removed.

You can thank George w Bush for getting Americans perpetually at war, which gives the president the power to attack any time as commander-in-chief. No war? No commander-in-chief power.

I'm sorry dude. Perpetual American war started LONG before Bush Jr.

The difference is that before 2022 that half the nation rallied behind Republicans pushing that agenda.

Post 2022, Democrats are identical to neocons, they just use the terms "neolib" and "progressive", and liberals/former Democrats are told to just eat up the Progressive neocon bullshit. BeCaUsE tRuMp Is ThE eNd Of AmErIcA!

Even if Trump gets in, liberalism still exists in America. Good people are ready to step up and not let Trump end America.

The truly scary concept is not Trump, it's letting Progressives let the Democrat party die, letting liberalism in America die, because the Progressives convinced you that they are the only one true savior of America, while they advance conservative agendas and stomp out any liberal voice of dissent.

Really though? The USA has been at war for 222 Out of 239 Years – Since 1776. I don't think Bush started the trend.
