lol, they can huff and puff all they want but even Trump is smart enough to realize that unless they're willing to press the button that ends the world, they're absolutely dependent on the US and as a result we can do whatever we want while totally ignoring them if we so choose

what're they gonna do, switch to embracing and boosting the Dems?

This is exactly why American Jews and not-crazy Israelis told Bibi that going all-in on making Israel a partisan issue was loving stupid.

I know this was the usual ploy - let conservative Dems run on a pro-Israel platform on the understanding that Bibi would sabotage them however he could and never support them back, but I feel like that's gonna get less and less returns and starting pretty soon

In the House at least, lord knows the Senate Dems are absolutely on board with licking a boot that is literally kicking them in the face and picking their pocket to boot

Yeah, millennials don't associate Judaism with Israel like boomers do and until now they've sort of relied on that to concern troll critics

unfortunately it just means young Jews are going to get the same poo poo we're getting here where the eldery killcrazy people in charge realize they weren't able to brainwash the next generation so instead they just accelerate everything as fast as they can so that it will be harder to undo

I think you mean formalizes it

Reminder that the first statement Israel's foreign minister of Jewish Affairs or whatever made after the synagogue shooting was to WELL ACKSHULLY about how it wasn't actually a synagogue because it was a sect that they don't recognize because they're too liberal

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

I think something that is lost in a lot of political talk including the previous pages is that the pool of voters is actually everyone and not the less than half that actually vote. When the dems internalized that the only way to get more votes is to poach them from the other party they lost.

rural whites liked third way Democrats because third-way Democrats framed their welfare reforms as punishing the "lazy" and rewarding the "hard-working". The whole point of welfare reform was to link government assistance to work to appease racial resentment on the part of rural whites who saw welfare as rewarding Cadillac driving welfare queens. Rural white America hates the "unvirtuous" poor below them as much as the coastal elites above them.

bill clinton was popular in rural america, and continued to be all the way up to maybe 2016 if not today. Rural America is not some hotspring of leftism just waiting for a socialist savior to come along.
Is there even such a thing as a rural left? I thought rural whites were all too stupid and rage-culty for that
