Ensign_Crab,

Amazon Fresh just became the latest big-box retailer to cut costs on thousands of items, following in the footsteps of Walmart and Target in reversing course on years of inflation-induced price hikes

Greed-induced. Inflation-excused.

Ensign_Crab,

He’ll never see the inside of a cell. The legal system protects shit like him.

Hillary didn’t lose because of a cult of personality or a few swing states, she was just simply a shit candidate.

She had decades of accumulated hatred from Republicans. She had resentment from Obama Democrats regarding her behavior in the 2008 primaries. She had greater resentment from Sanders Democrats because of the way party leadership favored her in the 2016 primaries. She coupled that with a VP nominee that was to her right, as a slap to the face of progressives she had done her best to alienate. Then she didn’t campaign in key swing states that she went on to lose.

What I’m saying here is that she was not simply a shit candidate. Her shittiness was remarkable for its complexity.

Ensign_Crab,

He looks like the Hamburglar chose the wrong grail.

Ensign_Crab,

Yeah, but unfortunately with how charged everything is if he gets anything he will claim political persecution and try to be a martyr

He did that when he won.

Schumer was one of the people who invited Netanyahu to directly and publicly provide his employees with their marching orders.

Ensign_Crab,

That congress does whatever Netanyahu wants? They overwhelmingly voted against conditioning aid to Israel while Netanyahu was obviously committing a genocide.

Ensign_Crab, (edited )

I offered my rationale for my statement. Which was a formality since you intended to dismiss in bad faith anything I said.

Ensign_Crab,

The article you linked to indicates that Schumer’s invite to Netanyahu came after it was clear that Netanyahu was committing genocide:

Johnson first suggested inviting the Israeli leader, saying it would be “a great honor of mine” to invite him. That came soon after Schumer, who is the highest ranking Jewish elected official in the U.S., had delivered a stinging rebuke of Netanyahu. Schumer said in the speech that Netanyahu had “lost his way” amid the Israeli bombing campaign in Gaza.

Even so, Schumer had said he would join in the invitation because “our relationship with Israel is ironclad and transcends any one prime minister or president.”

Schumer invited Netanyahu AFTER the genocide commenced. I’m confident that my comment was not misinformation.

Ensign_Crab,

Oh no. You baselessly declared victory after dismissing my comment in bad faith. How will I survive?

Ensign_Crab,

Ah. I was confused. I thought you were saying you had reported it, like to the admins or something.

Ensign_Crab,

Which does make more sense, yes.

Ensign_Crab,

I provided my rationale. You dismissed it, and you were going to dismiss it regardless of what I said. That’s bad faith.

without becoming a victim?

Republicans insist that anyone who disagrees with them is playing the victim.

Ensign_Crab,

We gave Democrats a supermajority. They killed the public option with it. They made damned sure to bail out their owners in the banking industry and make sure the only one of them who saw any consequences was the guy who scammed rich people. And had no interest whatsoever in codifying Roe.

And just like Biden’s first two years, they could have ended the filibuster forever with a simple majority, so your “four months” argument is just another pro-failure excuse.

Ensign_Crab,

Republicans are foaming at the mouth for Netanyahu to chat them up.

The invitation is not from Republicans alone.

Ensign_Crab,

The official aims, or the obvious ones?

Ensign_Crab,

Why, it’s almost as though Netanyahu is deliberately trying to make Biden look foolish and weak.

Ensign_Crab,

I see his hands aren’t tied here.

Ensign_Crab,

The candidate that ran to Biden’s right wants a pardon for Trump? Imagine that.

Ensign_Crab,

Which is why he’s coming to the US instead.

Ensign_Crab,

Huh. Yesterday, I was told that this plan was endorsed by Israel. I doubt Biden was lying about it. Now it’s a nonstarter.

The Netanyahu regime is operating in bad faith in order to make Biden appear foolish and weak because Bibi wants Trump. Biden keeps playing into his hands.

Ensign_Crab,

Centrists gonna pretend they don’t still love him.

Ensign_Crab,

As president, he is expected to address people’s concerns.

Offer void for progressives’ concerns.

Ensign_Crab,

You’ll blame them if he loses.

Ensign_Crab,

I’d rather him win the election and continue to do as much good as he can than lose and let Trump do as much damage as he can.

I’d rather people who are happy with him adopting Trump’s policies quit acting like anyone who has any criticism of him at all is a Trump supporter.
