This dumb fuck is gaining in the polls.
I just…can’t anymore

Keep in mind that the polls right now are also being flooded with right wing aligned groups
Yeah, polls much like any mathematics based discipline are susceptible to garbage in garbage out. You can have the perfect model but if the raw data put into it is shit then all youll get out of it is shit.
Are we really being upset about a line moving up a couple of pixels when we're talking about polling on Trump? The polls have never been accurate on Trump and besides that there really isn't really a model for a convicted felon that tried to overthrow democracy running in a Presidential election. Nobody will know what the numbers are until the votes are counted.
No matter what the polls say it doesn't change what needs to be done. Vote. Support the Harris campaign in whatever way you're able to. If Trump was polling at 60% or if he was polling at 30% it wouldn't change what needs to be done.
Vote.
From a purely strategic perspective, is this wise of Trump?
My impression is that even many American Jewish people don't like Netanyahu. And he doesn't need to remind anti-Harris protest voters that he's even more anti Palestine. Many MAGA diehards don't even like Netanyahu.
Like... who is he appealing to? Older Republicans, I guess, who remember Israel's early days?
He's appealing to people that hate Muslims.
And people who think the rapture starts with a holy war in Jerusalem.
The "left behind" Christians, who want nothing more than Armageddon.
If he can keep steady poll numbers after an insurrection, my guess is that this won’t impact him at all.
Trump wants, and largely has, the "Nuke 'em all and let God sort 'em out!" vote.
And yet, if comments on this site are to be believed, he's still also getting the, "We refuse to vote Democrat because we're against the genocide!" crowd (sorry guys, but not voting or voting third party is a vote for Trump. You cannot escape it).
"He's doing a good job,"
thanks, Hitler
Honestly, is there anyone alive today with more blood on their hands than Benjamin Netanyahu?
W & Dick Cheney
Assad is right up there. 500k-600k in the last 10 years in Syria.
That's about the same yearly average as Israel in Gaza (so far) but for 10+ years ongoing.
But I expect the humanitarian crisis to result in the death rate in Gaza to increase unless the US grows a pair.
It's sad to say, but yes. Gaza is a horrific tragedy, but it is an admittedly small corner of the world.
The Palestinian health ministry has reported 40,000+ Palestinian dead. Meanwhile, George W. Bush is responsible for the deaths of over a million Iraqis following his completely unnecessary invasion of Iraq. He's still kicking, probably using some of that blood on his hands for the painting he does now.
Putin is also pulling comparable numbers as Bibi in Ukraine, though that conflict has been going on for a little bit longer than the one in Gaza. But that's also not counting how many of his own men he sent to their deaths, which is estimated to be over 100,000.
Henry Kissinger would also be on this list but thankfully it's been almost a year since his long-awaited demise.
And that's really only looking at conflict. Not factoring in others who are responsible for large-scale humanitarian crises that may end up killing many more people just from disease or starvation.
The Palestinian health ministry has reported 40,000+ Palestinian dead.
That only counts people who get found, obviously it doesn't count the tens of thousands who are dead or dying under the rubbel. The real number is probably an order of magnitude higher.
Trump's response to covid. Putin's entire career. Kim Jong Un's slow starvation of his entire fucking nation. But Netanyahu is up there and we should stop letting him write our foreign policy.
If you're exceptionally fascist, Trump will allot you extra praise. This is earnest as well - it's because he was mentored by a fascist type personality in Roy Cohn - and raised by a ruthless racist Capitalist in the form of his father who refused to rent his properties to black people (putting a 'c' on their applications to indicate they were people of color).
