Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich welcomed President-elect Donald Trump’s electoral victory Monday, saying that “the time has come” to extend full Israeli sovereignty over the occupied West Bank.

He made the comment a day after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a recorded statement that he has spoken three times with Trump since the election and that they “see eye to eye on the Iranian threat.

    So you think the Dems are at no fault? There’s “no other way to see it”? That’ll win elections bubby. Won so many elections already! Keep that going and I can’t see how you’ll ever lose an election! Especially not 2 out of the fucking 3 this kinda thinking has already implemented.

    It’s been made clear over and over. Either the Democrats concede to their base for once in their life and win, or don’t and we all die. I’m going to blame the organization who seems to be purposefully throwing elections to do anything in their power to concede nothing.

    It’s also a lot easier for an organization to pivot and change than an entire population, another “way to see it” why your being real stupid right now.

    Like, I too wish we could of not had trump. I voted Kamala as a conscious lesser of two evil. But I cannot morally be upset at protest voters or unenthusiastic voters when I watched that campaign just “assume” their base would come out, gave them nothing, and then courted the right wing the entire time. Campaigned with Liz Cheney and sucked up every establishment Republican endorsement they could.

    They did a bad plan. It was obviously a bad plan. Do you think that the Dems having a stupid plan and dumping billions into ads for voters that don’t exist was better than conceding to the voters who do.

    Silly silly silly. I don’t know what else to tell you. You are so upset and angry that the Dems lost that your lashing out at what you consider the cause when the call is coming from inside the house.

      Cool story.

      So you know, both the LGBTQ and women’s rights are going to take a HUGE hit now as a result of their smug little protest votes. Oh… and Palestine is either going to be occupied, or become a crater. Same with Ukraine- so… victory! Right? We certainly learned our lesson at the expense of a shit ton of innocent lives…

      But as long as they can feel morally superior, right?

      I’m not arguing this any further.

        So the Democrats, who actively told their left wing to fuck off with any demands, are not the ones at fault for not doing the thing that would win them the election. It’s instead the fault of random unknown and vague people in your head at fault. Literally millions with their own reasons. Not the campaign with the ability to respond to these demands.

        Great strategy bubby. Top tier strategy. How many elections is that winning?

        Nah, instead of changing gears and doing something that works you’d rather whine, blame, guilt, and otherwise make an ass of yourself.
