      I think that’s grass-is-greener thinking and the lesson is that both the good cop and the bad cop work for the same police department.

      Yeah maybe the guy who instituted a Muslim ban would be more supportive of the Palestinian people, good thought.

        Okay, but imagine if Democratic Party was united against Trump in support of Palestinian people.

        Without him in power to sharpen the contradictions, liberals fall into the trap of bipartisan consensus.

          Consider Bernie and Fetterman’s statements. Mixed with the fact that only 17% of DNC staff signed the later asking Biden to pressure Israel to give a ounce of shit about people in Gaza.

          If this was a Trump administration, we’d be ignoring what isreal is doing because we’d be fighting tooth and nail trying to protect Palestinians in America from being deported or placed into camps.

      Nah that’s dumb, Trump wouldn’t try to stop this happening, at all. And even if he tried to do something out of pure contrarianism, this isn’t something that his handlers would let him fuck up
