29. Always going to end this way? Really?
Fri May 2, 2025, 01:00 PM
May 2

No surprise. Yes. Always gonna happen. Only in a Trump administration.

I doubt for a moment that Harris or “Genocide Joe” would abide by this. For all those who decided to sit home and watch others decide the election because, ya know, Biden wasn’t tough enough on Israel, for all those who said yeah…I’m ok with whatever cuz I can’t vote for Harris…how’s that working for ya now?

We’re in the FO stage because warnings to look past the Gaza issue in November were viewed as condoning Israel.

Whoever would have thought that a real estate developer would take a pass on stealing one of, if not the most prime pieces of undeveloped land in the world? I’m sure he falls asleep at night and says “Greenland? Who the fck really wants Greenland…gimme Gaza”. It’s every hotel/casino developer’s white whale.

This isn’t intended to point a specific finger and I know many here who were/are anti Israel didn’t stay home or (worse yet) vote for asshat. But that’s what happened in a lot of places among people more politely superficial than folks on DU.
