    go see the .world version of this in their politics community; even now, when there’s data to prove this they continue to stick their heads in the sand and it makes me scared for the future.

    Still unfathomable to me. I hope those that stayed home think of their choice when Trump fully and vocally supports Israeli settlements across north Gaza.

    Then again: “Grim noted some caveats, pointing out that "even if October 7 and the resulting genocide had never happened, it’s fair to assume some number of those non-voters still would not have voted, and would have cited a different top reason for not voting.” Yeah, Harris was just never going to get some of those votes. But enough to swing the election? I guess we’ll never know.

      so far; it’s looking like trump is the better option due to the ceasefire and i hate admitting it; i hate admitting even more that he failed.

          he didn’t let that stop him; he sent his emissaries to doha and brokered a cease fire earlier today.

            Remember that time President Carter arranged to free the hostages, then Ronald Reagan snuck in and had Iran wait on announcing their release until he was inaugurated, so that he could claim credit?

            Oh, and didn’t Nixon pull a similar trick with Vietnam?

            Must be an incoming GOP President maneuver.

              it’s an american empire thing; even the liberals on .world deleted the post rather than accept that the genocide had anything to do with it.
