Anyone who has the ability to have a backup plan to leave America, should keep that option open. I fear if Trump wins, within a few years, America will be the “Christian” version of Afghanistan, which is what most of Trump’s cult really wants IMO

I have to confess; the Afghanistan withdrawal, the asymmetrical coverage of the candidates, & the freakout over choosing Walz over Shapiro (what a tempest in a teapot that was!) have combined to pretty well blackpill me on this one. Any pullback from supporting Israel will be covered as treason.
We said there's no difference between the parties. There was. Had Gore been elected and 9/11 occurred, we still likely would have invaded Afghanistan. We'd have said, "see. there's no difference," blissfully unaware that we had avoided a whole second war killing half a million more people.
