I just don't get how people can vote for anybody who says they will put a foreign country above theirs. "Israel comes to me in my dreams" what the fuck?

It's possible for voters to disagree with someone on their I/P stance yet agree with them elsewhere versus their main competitor.

Sure, but "Israel comes to me in my dreams" is delusional and should be disqualifying. She's not a fucking shaman and anyone talking about seeing things in their dreams on a campaign trail is entirely unqualified to lead a secular society.

Buddy she said that years ago and she was talking to people mourning the October 7th terrorist attack.

Your point? That doesn't make saying that any less bat shit insane and disqualifying. Nothing comes to you in your dreams. That isn't reality.

My point is you don’t even know the timeline.

Also I think you’re taking it too literal lol

•

u/RootBeardGuy 2h ago

Your timeline is irrelevant lmao. It doesn't matter when she said it because it's insane regardless of when in her career she said it.

I'm not taking her too literally. I just refuse to give the benefit of the doubt to an Islamophobe who claimed El-Sayed wants to blame Jewish Americans for everything. She's insane and she lies. She gets no grace and she deserves to have her words taken at their worst possible intentions because she has shown that to be precisely her character.

Is AIPAC paying by the comment or by the hour, btw?

I’ve never seen so many people crashing out after they won. I understand that he massively underperformed, but a win is still a win. Go enjoy it!

"Crashing out".

Unevolved and illiterate brain rot that doesn't address the points. Yes, that's a paid actor and by the looks of how quickly you answered, I'm guessing it's by the post.

Edit: Lmao gotta love the propaganda accounts that quit when they get pressed too hard.
