You're talkin' bout me. Yeah, I was pretty impressed when Trump got a cease-fire so quickly. Thought he might actually be better in this respect than Harris. Sadly I was wrong -- I'll admit that.

What are the chances Republicans were pressuring Netanyahu to delay a ceasefire until after the election, like they did in the Iran hostage crisis?

[–] [email protected] -2 points 11 hours ago

Zero. Biden could force a ceasefire if he wanted to; Trump couldn't force him not to. And Carter didn't provide Iran with tens of billions in arms, so it's not a good comparison.

Good. Ceasefire was just a cover to ramp up the cleansing in the West Bank though. He’s worse on all fronts.

Less Palestinians are dying, less bombs are being dropped, people are returning to Northern Gaza, which was ethnically cleansed under Biden, but you don't actually care about what happens to Palestinians, you just care that it's the red team doing it not the blue

Literally this one. I know you were in full on genocide denial mode when Biden was in, but those are the facts
