Who doesn't slip up and call for Lebensraum every once in a while? No biggie not-listening

Like all liberals, he just has that Dr. Strangelove disease that makes him start doing the salute if he gets too excited.

Getting ready for some lib from another instance to come here to talk about how bad Trump is and not even try to address that a Harris/Walz presidency won't be any different than the Biden/Harris presidency has been on the Palestinian genocidecountdown

lmao in the video when asked about his lying about "carrying weapons in war" he goes on this weird whole tangent that has nothing to do with what was asked then finishes up like he answered the question hoping they'll just move on, and the "..... bu--but yeah but the thing about you not being deployed tho?" was such great comedic timing.

He did that in the debate too, where he gets asked about a lie and does this 'aw shucks' attitude as if he is doing a mea culpa that he misspoke or got something wrong, but spends a minute and a half dancing around incoherently and not explaining at all what happened and then smiles and nods and goes "yeah so that's what happened" when he straight didn't say what happened. it's so bizarre. He also lied about his rank? Very trump-like move lol. I think he's legitimately a pathological liar.

It's like he understands the concept of deflection and misdirection as a politician, but has never actually tried to do it before.

He also lied about his rank?

So he isn't Fieldmarshal of the Janissaries? 😞

Oopsie Doopsie I made an unambiguous reference to a modern Lebensraum

Once again reminding everyone that Politico was bought by Axel Springer three years ago, a German right-wing tabloid company that has support for the USA and Israel as its stated core values. Even if they have nominal editorial independence, they know what their employer wants to hear.

It’s very clear that Walz was picked at the very last moment when they really wanted Josh Shapiro (even held the announcement in PA). Now they’re stuck with someone who made even JD fucking Vance look halfway competent. Thankfully nobody votes based on VP pick, so it’s not a huge problem for the Democrats.

Nothing about israel on the article? Or did I miss some context?

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 39 points 2 months ago

They are referring to his recent comment in the debate where he stated "the expansion of Israel and its proxies is an absolute, fundamental necessity for the United States to have the steady leadership there"

"It was a debaaaaate! It was just a debate."

Adolf Hitler wasn’t a Nazi, he just misspoke a lot.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
