Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor.

Trump is now finger-wagging as well.
The only liberal defense has fallen apart.
The source for this could be totally making up the basic intention of the phone call after the fact, we don't actually know what Trump said in that phone call, he hasn't actually made a public statement demanding a cease fire or anything else, and we just can't trust anything Trump or his affiliates say because of their very long history of lying about everything.
Moreover, given his policy history and the people he's chosen to associate himself with (e.g. the Republican party, social conservatives, etc.) there is absolutely no way anyone can reasonably believe a second Trump administration will do anything but encourage and try to expand Palestinian genocide.
But Biden has been trying to convince Netanyahu to take the deal too, right?
Everyone is trying to convince Netanyahu very hard.
Maybe Trump can convince Netanyahu by promising to give him $39B instead of $38B in weapons
What's Trump's view on the Russian invasion of Ukraine?
From
Into
Said no one, ever. No one is zeroing in on any one given trump position. We are talking about obvious patterns in his rhetoric and in his behavior. Probably because even if anyone somehow was unaware of these patterns, we still might realize that trump lies about basically every single thing he mentions. Oh yeah, he supposedly supported a ceasefire guys, so this not only means it's genuine during his campaign, it erased every fucking thing else he said/did!
This is a weak, weak bullshit-ass argument from a serial liar. Pathetic. You really need to be banned from the platform.
Oh look a user who admits to stalking my profile shows up to spout toxic nonsense again.
Oh look, a shocking nonresponse to being called out on lying every day.
Where was that first quote from because it wasn’t from me.
I read it on Russia Today so it's obviously what all Democrats are saying!! /s
The sarcasm punctuation is completely unnecessary.
True. Habit.
Why did you bring up Ukraine? That sure wasn't the argument.
It’s easy to make it the only defense if I’m not allowed to bring up any others.
You said Biden was pushing for a ceasefire deal right? Where is it?
Can you answer the question about Trump's view of the invasion of Ukraine so I know you're not bouncing around between bad-faith arguments and are actually looking to have a conversation?
Harris and Bidens position on Ukraine certainly looks better than Trump.
It's a shame the Genocide they are supporting makes them ineligible for voting because that's far far worse.
Unless you can show me that ceasefire deal Biden is really pushing for and isn't just pretending. Surely he's using his leverage over israel. You're not saying that in bad-faith right?
Is this a real question?
I'm waiting
I texted my man Biden and asked him if he was for reals or just fooling with the cease fire thing so I'll let you know when he gets back to me.
Thx i'm glad you're always arguing in good faith.
I'm not sure you even know what good faith is.
HahahahahhahahHHHHhHHahahahhaha
Now, tell us again how Trump's attitude towards Israel is identical to Biden's and Harris's.
What a fucking joke.
Have you ever, ever made an argument in good faith? It is fucking hilarious that you can, with a straight face, expect anyone to believe that this somehow makes Biden and Trump aligned on Israel.
But you're not looking to convince rational people are you? You're just looking to reinforce the half baked ideas of voters who already are leaning against voting for a Democrat.
