Good thing the dems made it easy by putting the interests of a foreign genocidal apartheid state before their voters. With a bit of luck, we might be able to successfully blame everyone but them, and they might be confident enough to repeat the same strategy and lose the next election as well.

Republicans are literally laying the ground work to turn the USA into a fascist dictatorship that is in lock step with Russia and Israel, but alright cool. Good thing we have more concern for a foreign conflict then the survival of our own democracy.

I have never come across anyone supporting Trump on lemmy. I voted for Kamala but we are in a post election environment. The election is OVER and they betrayed us.

Demanding the dems stop supporting genocide on the grounds that it’s the right thing to do and it clearly alienated their voters is not supporting Trump.

Holding the dems accountable for the shit show they orchestrated at the behest of israel is not supporting Trump.

Demanding they start to actually represent us and demanding internal changes in the party is not supporting Trump.

Who are you supporting by defending their stance on genocide so consistently?

Dems don’t support genocide. Claiming otherwise is outright misinformation FUD targeting Democratic voters to drive support for RUpublicans.

Huh, that’s really odd conclusion to draw from Democrats literally supporting genocide. Harris couldn’t even be bothered to come out against it during the campaign even when they knew their support was a losing issue.

Again, more Fascist supporting apologia.

The DNC does not support genocide, Trump supports the genocide of Palestine. How dense do you have to be to not see that you are supporting the genocide of Palestine?

There are multiple meanings of “support.” There’s an endorsement meaning, which can be explicit or tacit, and there’s an aiding meaning. The Democrats may not explicitly endorse it, but the Biden administration certainly did tacitly endorse it by directly aiding it. And most of the party has been tacitly endorsing and aiding it for decades.
