Angry with the Biden administration – and, by extension, Kamala Harris – for its support for Israel, Arab Americans may be willing to overlook Trump’s history of closeness with Israel’s hard-right leaders.

So, these individuals could be described as the common clay of the new West?

yeah man, denigrate them more, that'll surely get them on your side! maybe a touch more smug condescension? anything except engaging with their concerns, of course.

I don't want them on my side. I'm not running for office, and they're shitty, stupid people.

Trump supporters? Yeah, I stand by it.

I call conservatives dumb too.

These people aren’t special. Just a different kind of dumb.

Similar in the way they vote against their own interests.

You see no difference between people put off by settler-colonial genocide and... settler colonists? What?
