Ol’Don’s dementia must be really kicking in.
Last night, during an interview, he said that the crowds went crazy at the debate when he was fact checked.
There was no crowd at the debate

They better not be surprised when they hand the election to Donald and are the first among the deportation chopping block.

The Twitter rightoids are already in the process of going “he was talking about the audience at home!!!”

I’m going to regret asking this, but what xenophobia. If it’s about Palestine, that’s already a problem with varying shit outcomes no matter how you cut it, imo.

Thing is, Israel is the only more well-known ally for the US.
Saudi Arabia has a well noted history of horrible stuff.
UAE is the one that isn’t interacted with much.
If Kamala said they won’t support Israel, do you really think Israel would take kindly?

The border wall is a pure symbol of xenophobia, it serves no other purpose than making people feel like they are special and walled off from the outside world.

Of course Israel won’t take it kindly, that’s their problem. The US is openly supporting a genocide.

Yeah, and I’d rather not find out if Israel has a “fuck you” nuke pointed at us if they decide to go out swinging when no one’s on their side.

@marinus18
Well, that’s the thing.
Much as the US would love to say fuck you to Israel, the thing is, we don’t want to learn if Israel has nukes.
Pathetic, yes. But try saying that if your country gets nuked.

The US has an anti-nuke defense system. It’s not sufficient against Russia or China but it is sufficient against North-Korea. If it can stop North-Korea it can stop Israel too.
On top of that it’s not a convincing argument considering Trump ripped up the Iran nuclear deal and Biden hasn’t restored it despite Iran wanting too.

We could wipe Israel (or really any country) off the map if we mobilized our entire military might against them.
No joke, it would take the combined power of pretty much the rest of the world fo actually put us down.

@Zincy
I mean, we could, but do we really need to spark an Israeli migrant crisis/Holocaust 2?
I’d rather not repeat the classic Middle East policy of “solve problem by introducing another one.”
It’d also be political suicide.

They aren’t, but the discourse can still influence them just the same. No one will say that Richard Pavlick, Lee Harvey Oswald or Sirhan Sirhan were examples of mental stability, but you can’t say that politics didn’t influence them to do what they did.
