Or, maybe, he's gotten tired of pretending to be anti-Trump.

I think that emo Otto is probably the real Otto.

What's the end game of pretending? Self delusion? At least with going full Hans (nod to minsky :D ) he gets to mess with people.

You guys seem to struggle with the idea that people can have red lines. Support for Israel is a red line for me, I can tolerate a lot on which I disagree with to vote against the negatives in the modern GOP. Abandoning Israel is not one of them. It really is as simple as that. I won't abide it, I won't vote for it. Neither party is entitled to my vote. And I am one voter, it isn't a matter of great import who I, individually, vote for.

Biden has not "abandoned Israel" and to assert that he has is the worst kind of emo Trumpter bullshit.  Anyone triggered by the US acting in its own interest is no patriot.

That's the thing about voting.  It is a bunch of voters casting a ballet and each one counts and is of great importance.

Maybe Biden should have reflected on that before elevating the concerns of Hamastans like Rashida Tlaib over one of America's most important allies. Actions have consequences.

It is interesting to watch the formation of a Trumpeter before our very eyes.  But I take Grumbler's point, perhaps not so much the formation, but the exposure
of the core beliefs that have been present all along

Full Trump supporter is just played out and boring. Otto should have spiced things up by going full RFK Jr. or Marianne Williamson.

Quote from: OttoVonBismarck on March 26, 2024, 09:09:23 AMGood, the last thing we need is Trump having financial issues that will hurt his campaign. Now that Joe Biden has thrown his lot in with Islamic terrorism defeating him is a priority of national survival. All of the court cases against Trump should be quashed / thrown out. You don't weaken the fight against someone who is actively seeking to derail America like Biden is.

U ok hon?

I just don't see how not veto'ing a pointless UNSC resolution is throwing your lot in with Islamism.

I mean China is actively committing genocide against Muslims and they voted for it.
