A politician who tells it like it is? A guy you could, God forbid, have a beer with? A veteran even, but with working class cred and a love of video games. A total unknown on the national level, but beloved by his constituents... You couldn't order a more perfect veep off a menu. It's almost surreal
“the expansion of Israel and its proxies is an absolute, fundamental necessity for the United States to have the steady leadership there”
The average person you meet down the street has less thirst for blood and would make a better politician.
Citation needed.
But let's humor your point. That is pretty awful, but what the fuck is the alternative? Voting Trump/Vance who will let Israel dial their genocide up to 11; shit they will probably actively encourage it, if there is votes/power or money in it for them.
Are you even following the conversation? The alternative for a better vice president off a menu is every peasant in the world who isn't a corrupted authoritarian warmonger. They are not even talking about red vs blue and you bring up the necessity to vote for a party.
I'm gonna humor your point too. Advocating for the expansion of Israel and its proxies as an absolute, fundamental necessity is already dialing the genocide up to 11. Stop with the twisted logic that one choice is necessary because less bad, there's already a disaster going on
