    Yeah - not sure about callous, but a tad bit off on the facts?

    Also, not sure that Israel is such a great ally either - they have been aggressively spying on the USA for years.

    Personally I don't think the USA should give Israel ****.... same for the rest of that part of the world. If there was ever a time for the USA to give money and resources to a nation in the Middle East it was after Iraq fell, they stayed just long enough to leave a lot of young Iraqis feeling betrayed by the USA.

    Israel can go pound sand.

    they sell our secrets and tech to china, they attacked the USS Liberty, they have an entire network of agents influencing our government to become our biggest recipient of foreign aid.

    Yup - and they have used lobbying and money to basically buy blind loyalty from both parties and a lot of Americans.

    Israel is about Israel.

    The blind loyalty from people like Pelosi and Trump is absurd... they profit from us, not the US people.

    That's scary to me. If RFK ran in 2008 (if there was no Obama) he likely would have won, and his vaccine stance would not have been an issue. Even now it shouldn't be because no matter how safe one feels vaccines are for the general population, there is nothing wrong with requiring more testing or eliminating the corrupt loops in the medical industry.

    If RFK had his way everyone would still be able to get whatever vaccine they wanted, it just wouldn't be mandated in any state to attend school. The vax rates in states that allow for personal choice like Colorado or Texas are what would happen overall in the US if RFK was president. I don't see massive plagues happening in either state, but seriously they've both had less outbreaks than california in recent memory, which allows no choice (as in one size fits all, all under 18 must get every scheduled vaccine on the CDC schedule to attend school...but not to play sports! I digress...). I just don't see the big deal with his stance on it, especially when you consider all his other views align with liberals (and his vaccine views align with classic liberalism/hippie liberals).

    I agree, the democratic power structure is very old and out of touch. the boomer Dems are no different than the boomer Repubs at this point. Let's call them the neocon party.

    Also, can you drop out while you are incapacitated (or dead)?

    I'm not really better than this though.

    I'll post stuff to see what people say. Re-posting a tweet doesn't necessarily mean I have done a background check on the tweeter or a fact check on the content of the tweet.

    She will get +10 in the millennial woman and +5 in the millennial men demos if does.
