The US supports Israel so that Israel can stop Iran from becoming a bigger threat.
The US supports Israel so that Israel can prevent Iran from growing in power and take control of the region.
In 2020 the senate was a 50/50 split with the vice president giving the democrats 1 more vote than republicans. In 2022 it was a 51/49 split giving dems only 2 more votes than republicans. The “majority” was so slim that it was not enough for the supermajority vote required for the most important legislation. And it only took 1-2 senators to not vote along party lines to block Democratic legislation.
To ignore that and pretend that dems had the power to do whatever they wanted is disingenuous.
To blame the Democratic Party for the actions of 1-2 senators that chose to go against the party is disingenuous.
You’re claiming that all republican legislation that has ever been passed, only passed because of help from democrats? That’s verifiably false.
Pointing out that republicans try to block democrat legislation is reality not an excuse. But you probably believe they are all lizard people with your conspiracy minded thought process.
When people like yourself fall for it, why would they stop?
Commiting war crimes and genocide in the name of stopping Iran is lame and stupid
Tell this to Netanyahu. Iran is also not afraid of committing warcrimes.
“Democrats” or the Democratic Party as a whole? Because any bad faith actor can claim to be democrat and go against party lines.
There is evidence of republicans trying to stop Democratic legislation. There is none of the Democratic Party trying to stop the Democratic Party
Manchin and Sinema exist because any politician can just claim to be democrat and not vote along party lines. For you to act like it is some conspiracy by the democrats to not follow through on what they worked for is a bad faith argument.
Isn’t it more likely that republicans, the group that actively blocks all democrats out then up to it?
Manchin and Sinema. Why are you trying to blame the Dem party for people that don’t vote along party lines. That’s an obvious bad faith argument.
That’s irrelevant. We are talking about whether the Democratic Party intended to do what they said they would do.
They said they would forgive student loans. They were blocked by republicans.
You are acting like democrats are to blame for republicans actions.
Israel is supported by the US to prevent Iran from growing in power in the region.
Netanyahu is responsible for the genocide.
Those who blame Biden for Netanyahu’s actions are responsible for our environment, peace, wealth and very freedoms being in dire peril. Because they have empowered Trump.
But it seems pretty clear that was the goal from those bad faith actors.
I’m not saying he didn’t uphold policy.
Because they’ve passed legislation that hasn’t been blocked in Congress like the student loan forgiveness. Which went on to be blocked by conservative lawsuits. But not after helping some people.
This makes it pretty clear than republicans are the reason democrats can’t get more progressive policies passed. Even to those not paying attention.
So you’re response is based off emotion and not logic.
Why do you feel they didn’t have any intention of doing what they ran on?
I didn’t deliberately leave it out. I just didn’t see a point in including it. I was sharing this info in response to this comment of yours:
To point out that Iran was a threat to Israel long after the coup to remove Mohammad Mossadegh that you seemed to be referring to:
The August 1953 coup stemmed from U.S. fears over the Soviet Union increasingly wanting a piece of Iran as Communists agitated within the country.
