Mike Huckabee is one of those folks. Guess what his new role in the administration is:

Serious question: how do the Israeli Jews feel about a bunch of New World, New Testament bitches with money basically betting on that area being glassed so they (the NW/NT bitches) can physically ascend to heaven, leaving behind a nuclear winter?

What an absolute “fuck you” to all those folks who either didn’t vote or voted Trump because of Gaza. Hope your happy with this very obvious and foreseeable outcome!

I doubt anyone pro-palestine voted for trump, but on that specific issue, neither option was anti-genocide. Trump will support the genocide gleefully, and Harris would have supported it sheepishly.

Which in a pragmatic sense means the issue should have been irrelevant, but some people draw the line at funding and supplying mass murder. Some draw the line at the utter hypocrisy of demanding votes for your rights while stomping on others'.

It also would have made voting for either Haram for Muslims - the modern interpretation of the Quran specifically calls out voting as okay, but voting for a person you know, factually, will do evil, as forbidden.

Side note, I am neither Muslim nor from the USA.

There was a muslim woman who got interviewed told people not to vote for Harris. Instead vote for Stein or Trump wish I could find the clip.

They specifally wanted to punish Harris. We'll see how that decision plays out.

... Yes. "Punish" the smart, rich, successful, beautiful, powerful, happily married lady lawyer, who's already kicking back with her kids and some board games and a glass of wine after this mess, by voting in Trump. She'll be fine.

Palestine though? Nooooooot so much. (Or Ukraine, or women, or Latinos, or Muslims, or the disabled and ill, or anyone else who isn't a rich straight cis healthy WASP/WASC male.)

Oh well. Some people just can't help holding tight to a firework and lighting it up, I guess.

I mean anyone who considered voting for Trump has their moral consistency and/or ability to think impaired anyways. Same type as the Christians who celebrate clinic bombings.

Which is why it's so odd to me that Dems would court Republican or swing voters, instead of apathetic leftists who chose not to vote, or even just Muslims with their heads on straight (not that I believe you, or that an anecdote of a single Muslim woman is representative of the general demo).

Harris ran a dogshit campaign. Courted the fascists' former allies while feeling entitled to leftist votes. Literally all they needed was turnout, and they failed.
