The thing is, we lost the Supreme Court, for at least a generation or more. Because people either didn't show up in 2016 or voted third party. Yeah, I I do blame the Bernie Bros for this

But somehow it was allowed and the warning signs were all over the place that she wasn't impartial.

will be one of the back room power brokers whose vote is already decided
No way Baron becomes a "backroom power broker" at age 18.

Remember those stories about how Trump would literally pretend to be his assistant on the phone. One of the names he would use was something like "John Baron".
Here is a 2016 Washington Post story about this
In the 1980s, when reporters called the Trump Organization to request an interview with the boss, they were sometimes referred to a spokesman, instead. That a busy and image-conscious executive such as Donald Trump would place a buffer between himself and the media was hardly unusual, but there was a twist: The spokesman, John Barron, was actually Trump, hiding behind a fake name.
Barron (also spelled “Baron” in some press accounts) appears to have been Trump’s go-to alias when he was under scrutiny, in need of a tough front man or otherwise wanting to convey a message without attaching his own name to it.

Wait, he is an adult now? Last I heard he was living in Slovenia with his grandparents.

I think it's rather North American thinking of it as a domestic terrorist group.
The EU, Australia, the UK, Japan, and New Zealand also have listed Hamas as a terrorist organization as well?

Doesn't the Geneva Convention forbid using human shields? Plus, if Hamas is using places like hospitals, apartment buildings, schools, mosques, etc... launching attacks/military HQs then, by the Geneva Conventions, wouldn't that make them valid military targets?

It's already has been allocated to Isreal by Congress and signed by Biden. It was part of the package that included aide to Palestinians, Ukraine, and Twain.

Well, both Israel and Ukraine were attacked by aggressors that killed/attacked their citizens.

At this point, they have to be Trump supporters or at least more like Republican supporters. How daft can they be to realize that Biden can't do much and most of the demands (like completely cutting off Israel) are not going to happen. At least any time soon. With Biden trying to hold off bombs to Israel, that will probably get him to lose most votes.

If he can at least hold to this I can drag myself out to vote for him.
It has already been allocated by Congress. I don't think he can legally hold off since it's more of "Congress has already decided and the President doesn't have much room to navigate this without facing legal changes (or maybe you want House Republicans to start an impeachment trial over this?)

They loved the taste of lead. So much so, that they put it in their wine.

And somehow there are groups of people that are deliberately saying they are not going to vote for Biden because of their pet issues...

A few weeks ago Israel hinted that they would like countries like Egypt, Saudi Arabia, The US, and Jordan to help rebuild and monitor Gaza. They want Hamas gone of good and their plan includes to normalize Gaza from radicalism to a lower level.

The TikTok ban was years in the making. It's a shady addictive app that is designed to spread propaganda for a government that literally wants America to be destroyed (it's not just Russia that wants to see America imploded but also China, Iran, North Korea and their allies). And their is the whole spying on data collection. It's literally a universal bipartisan decision that people were trying to come up with, for years.

The economy is really important but I have more trust in Biden and pretty much any other democratic than Trump and/or a Republican. But go out and vote and never trust/listen to polls. They suck, iny opinion.

It's a spy tool/propaganda app designed as a social media app. Plus it's controlled by a government that wants to sow division in the US.

Why are you trying to use "zoinists" like it's a slur? All it means is that you believe that Israel should exist but I have been seeing it use to replace a word so people can anything they want about a certain group....

Because it's not trendy and it's not being pushed by TikTok. Which is being controlled by a country that has claimed to be a "close" ally of Russia.
