I never understood the intense laser focus some people put on one policy. There's so many to care about if you're American. People are dying from homelessness, starvation, guns, and mental health every single day but the only thing you care about is overseas? That's not even mentioning things like a woman's right to dictate what happens to their own body.
Those homeless could have homes if the billions of dollars stopped going to propping up genocidal regimes and the military industrial complex
Oh sick is Trump campaigning on that??
Oh sick is Kamala campaigning on that??
Answer to both: no. So maybe we should use other factors to decide!
