While rebutting another post here on Lemmy, I ran into this. This says exactly what I want to say.

I am not a friend of Biden’s Administration. I think they drug their feet over a variety of things ranging from holding Trump and his goons accountable for January 6th through rulemaking on issues like OTC Birth Control and abortion rights, and yes, I think he’s too quick to please big business. But then I remember what the alternative is, and … well, disappointed in Biden or not, I’m voting for him. Because my wife is a Black bisexual goth woman, four strikes under Team Pepe’s tent. And I have my own strikes for marrying her as a White dude, and respecting her right to not have kids since she doesn’t want them is another strike against me. And I care about my Non-Christian, Gay, Transgender, and Minority friends, and will never willingly subject them to Team Pepe.

    In fact, Trump has said Israel should escalate. I believe the phrase he used was “finish the job”.

      Trump says Israel has to get war in Gaza over ‘fast’ and warns it is ‘losing the PR war’

      “Get it over with and let’s get back to peace and stop killing people. And that’s a very simple statement,” Trump said. “They have to get it done. Get it over with and get it over with fast because we have to – you have to get back to normalcy and peace.”

      “They’re releasing the most heinous, most horrible tapes of buildings falling down. And people are imagining there’s a lot of people in those buildings, or people in those buildings, and they don’t like it,” he added. “They’re losing the PR war. They’re losing it big. But they’ve got to finish what they started, and they’ve got to finish it fast, and we have to get on with life.”

        It’s interesting that you read something different in that. Trump says that they need to hurry up and finish what they started. That’s not a good thing.

          It’s interesting that you took the out of context quote you saw on a random lib outlet and do the same thing conservatives do when they repeat whatever out of context BS they hear Biden say on Fox News. Repeat it without ever looking at the context. Literally two sides of the same coin.

          This was one of the weird moments Trump didn’t bow down to Netanyahu.

          A similar moment was when every lib propaganda paper quoted Trump saying “It’s gonna be a bloodbath if Biden wins”. Really gets the libs scared enough to keep voting for Genocide. Until you read the actual quote where Trump is talking about the car industry.

          But hey. I debunked disinformation about orange man. Which now must mean I am a Russian troll and I must looooove Trump.
