Western politicians aren't even good at being politicians. The
very second after I first heard that Biden would support Israel
in it's annihilation of Gaza I already knew he jeopardized the
election for Democrats in favor of Trump. How is that actual
western politicians did not recognize this fact? Why would any
serious politician ever jeopardize the existence of their own
government in favor of a foreign government that really could
give two-shits about the politicians own country? I would love
to know what actual nonsense is floating around in these idiots
brains that leads them to believe most of their actions in this
regard are actually justified, as I'm sure the founding-fathers
of this country would also?

Furthermore, the above fact in my previous comment really makes
me wonder if democrats actually want Trump to win? How do they
honestly explain their actions, especially in regards to Gaza?
We already know most of these politicians are not stalwarts of
moral and ethical behavior, and not to get overly conspiratorial
here, but is there a plan to actually allow Trump to win so
Putin and Netanyahu can have their way with the world to the
detriment of the U.S., and are the democrats in on it?

cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is
less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly.
But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his
sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very
halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a
traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he
wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness
that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a
nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine
the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it
can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. ― Taylor

Apparently democrats want Trump to murder the U.S. government
and they seem all to happy and willing to go along with it.
Wtf!? For Russia and Israel, are you effing serious? This is how
low you people truly are in life?

Opinion: How you know the Democrats think Trump is going to win
--- Quote ---
> I know the conventional wisdom is that this election is too
close to call. And it is. Predictions on the outcome are little
better than guesses.
>
> Still, this is Washington. And while prognostications in U.S.
politics is fraught with risk, it doesn’t stop most of us — even
though we know that, if you are right, nobody cares, and if you
are wrong, it goes on your Wikipedia page forever.
>
> Predictions are pedestrian, oftentimes biased, and generally
uninteresting. But the reasoning behind them might occasionally
offer something of value.
>
> So, here’s the uninteresting part: I think that Donald Trump
is going to win. As to what might be of value, I could start by
offering some sort of geeky Washington insider piece of data,
such as how new voter registration in critically important
Pennsylvania has been trending in Republicans’ favor for more
than a year now.
>
> But that’s not the reason I think Trump is going to win.
>
> I could, instead, offer an interesting anecdote from a
high-ranking Republican from North Carolina, who was adamant
that Trump would win: “Mick, North Carolina is a true swing
state. But what people don’t realize is that it swings on the
issues, not necessarily the candidates. In 2016, the No. 1 issue
in the state was the economy. In 2020, the No. 1 issue was
health care. The issue this year, without a doubt, is the
economy again.”
>
> His point: Trump won the state easily in 2016. He also won in
2020, but it was much closer, and most polling predicted that
Biden would win. This year feels a lot more like 2016 than 2020.
>
> I thought that made a lot of sense. But, although those
insights certainly struck a chord, that still isn’t why I think
Trump is going to win.
>
> I think Trump is going to win because many Democrats are
talking like they are going to lose. And while every campaign
engages in some sort of expectations management, the Democrats
have been oddly specific in their pearl-clutching this cycle.
>
> They are complaining more and more about a relatively new,
entirely fabricated, but certainly sinister sounding boogeyman
that could steal away the election: the “Electoral College
bias.” Nothing screams “we are going to lose” more than saying
the game was rigged in the first place.
>
> Electoral College bias is the more succinct, more academic,
and more think-tank-slash-Ivy League-faculty-sounding
incarnation of the regular Democratic complaints about
Republicans winning the White House without winning the
constitutionally meaningless popular vote.
>
> The “bias” is linked to the Great Compromise that gave us
different structures in the House and the Senate. That
separation — with House members assigned by population and each
state getting two senators — was critical in getting big states
and small states to buy into the new Constitution. And yes, when
it comes to the Senate, it did put small states on the same
footing as the large. Indeed, that was its purpose.
>
> So, while Pennsylvania and Virginia might have dominated early
Houses (just as California and New York did for generations more
recently), Vermont could have equal say in the Senate (again,
just as it does today).
>
> The leap from there to Donald Trump is pretty simple, as the
Electoral College votes for each state are based on the number
of House members plus the two senators.
>
> The “inequity” supposedly stems from the proposition that
since so many small states are heavily Republican, Trump has an
unfair advantage. (Well, as long as you ignore Maine, New
Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, Delaware and Hawaii — all of
which are smaller than Idaho, by the way.) Take those Senate
votes away in the electoral college, and Trump wouldn’t have a
chance.
>
> Of course, you cannot have a real effort to undermine our
elections — I mean, restore equity — without some high-quality
“non-partisan” research. So, cue Pew Research, which just
released an exhaustive study designed to remind all of us that
nearly two-thirds of people would like to elect a president
based on the total popular vote. It is unclear whether Pew asked
people if they knew anything about the Great Compromise.
>
> Finally, just in case you wanted to actually engage in a
meaningful discussion of the historical and intellectual
underpinnings of the Electoral College, beware: the Electoral
College is also racist.
>
> The effort to promote the so-called bias, then, has been a
whole-of-the-left effort. Indeed, if someone else were engaging
in such a systematic, coordinated attack on our constitutionally
agreed-upon election processes, some people might call it
“undermining democracy.”
>
> But right now, it just sounds like Democrats see a Trump win
coming, and they are greasing the skids for blaming an
“inequitable” system.
>
> Honestly, I have no idea who is going to win next month. I
just hope that whoever loses decides that it was because they
lost, and not because the system was rigged against them.
