I have a serious question.

Can a case be made that Trump/Vance would be better than Harris/[?]? Trump would probably be as bad, and likely worse, when it comes to Gaza and the Middle East, than the Democrat Machine candidate. But arguably, Trump might lead to some sort of peace in Ukraine, more so than the opposition. What Israel is doing to Gaza and the West Bank is horrific, but even if a war erupts in the region involving Iran, Hezbollah, etc., it is maybe less likely to lead to a cataclysmic full scale nuclear war than might be the case vis-a-vis Ukraine and the confrontation between the U.S.-led "west" and Russia.

And when they get in a frenzy, they will sacrifice anything and anybody to feed their cruel and stupid habit, and there is no cure for it."
