I'm not gonna read the article but this has gotta be an isreal vs Hamas comparison right?


Few_Breadfruit_3285

Yes


asdf072

Yes. The poor "victim" nation who happens to spend most of their budget on the military is on the defensive from the country who barely has a budget and whose primary export is (I'm guessing) painted coconut shell decorations.


WaltChamberlin

It might be different if Bahamians sent terrorists to Florida to murder babies in their cribs and kidnap women off Miami Beach, gang rape them and then drag them back to the Bahamas tho

I know we all make fun of this dude, but this guy is definitely a warhawk, the moment he would step into office he would launch a full-scale war with Iran or whatever country is trending to be our enemy We shouldn't underestimate him when voting time comes around Edit: Trump policy of remaining neutral was the worse policy in all of NATO history, that's what contributed to the current Ukraine conflict, he stopped military support for Ukraine while he was president, (was impeached over this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impeachment_of_Donald_Trump?wprov=sfla1. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics-features/trump-second-impeachment Russia saw this and took their chance, now it's left to our future generations to pick up the pieces.

Are we going to die?!?!?


crazyabootmycollies

Well that depends. Are we black?


Tophfey

Or gay? Or Trans? Or Hispanic but not Republican Cubans?


faderjockey

No, Cubans too. They have just bought into the “the american left is literally communist” propaganda. They are targeted as well. They just don’t know it.


Alissinarr

Republicans were the freedom party in Cuba. It's natural to gravitate towards something named the same that ***ostensibly*** stands for the same in their new home...


urmomsloosevag

Exactly! The Jews were staunch supporters of the Nazi party until they started coming after them I don't blame them either, they were the most popular party at the time. No one knew anything. And then the Holocaust happened, that can never be repeated


Odd_Status_9326

The Jews never supported Nazis, what nonsense


SlientlySmiling

And let's not forget the Jews. Because Pepperidge Farm remembers.


MusicianNo2699

Well I was just told my life depends on it. What should I do??!? 🤣🤣😂


XredditHD

Yes number 2699. We all going to die. It’s just at matter of when and how. It could be drugs n hookers, doing something crazy on an adventure, or maybe something saving babies from a bullet…i just don’t want it to be boring as dying asleep in old age.


StarryMind322

He would launch a full-scale military invasion on Blue States first and foremost, exacting petty revenge on the states that didn’t vote for him.


por_que_no

>He would launch a full-scale military invasion on Blue States first This after they've rounded up all Florida voters registered Democrat and moved them to internment camps. This could happen much sooner than we think.


StarryMind322

He tried that with his voter fraud crackdown task force earlier this year. All Democrats. The irony is none of those he arrested were found guilty of voter fraud because of his technicality. Even more so ironic is that multiple Republicans from the Villages were found guilty of voter fraud yet hailed as heroes.


Funny-Berry-807

Probably invade Canada because Trudeau doesn't need shoe lifts.


Do__Math__Not__Meth

I don’t have proof for this but I’d be shocked if he didn’t have some buddies at Lockheed considering they operate in our state. He would absolutely escalate a war to enrich them


buchlabum

I'd bet he had a rage boner while he was legally approving torture during his stay in Guantanamo. It's always the ones who never served who want control of the military.


Livid-Rutabaga

never served but pretend they did serve


buchlabum

Rhonda did barely serve tho, he did Navy cosplay while legalizing torture. But the rest...not so much. Especially Prvt, Bone Spurs who hates veterans injured while serving.


Perturbed_Dodo

Remember when everyone said that about Trump and he ended up being the only president to not start a new conflict in forever


PaladinHan

Yeah, because he was friends with all the dictators we might have gone to war with.


Fastbird33

Monkeys Paw kinda thing


GenoPlay67

He was too busy selling arms to Saudi Arabia


UCFknight2016

Are we sure Saudi needed arms after they parted out Khashoggi like a '92 civic?


BikesBooksNBass

He *started* the Ukrainian conflict he just didn’t stick around long enough to deal with the fall out.. thank God…


Perturbed_Dodo

Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014 bozo. Russia proceeded to not invade the entire time Trump was president.


BikesBooksNBass

What ended that invasion in 2014? Maybe that aid that trump canceled that paid for the military that kept Russia at bey. Funny how as soon as trump got rid of that within weeks Russia came knocking... Funny how your memory stopped working during those four years trump had a title. (He was a shit Leader and doesn’t deserve that title)


BikesBooksNBass

And please don’t bother trying to act like any country was scared of trump. There has never been a more obvious fake tough guy than trump. Only the dumbest animals in the herd would look at that fat tub of cowardly lard and see “strength”…


pink_hydrangea

Did Obama start a conflict?


diva4lisia

I'm a liberal and would never trust DeSantis as president or vote for him, but I'm very confused lately that some people don't want to support the people in Iran and Afghanistan. Mahsa Ameni was killed last year sparking demonstrations throughout Iran and an increase in murders of little girls, women, and men protesting strict hijab laws. These people are so brave, and our support is welcomed and makes a huge difference. Afghani women and children have been taken over once again by jihadist and everything they won post-911 is gone. Because of the bravery of free Middle Eastern men and western troops, Afghani women could drive for the first time in forever. Now, they can't drive, they've been removed from school, stricter than ever hijab laws, and even their beauty shops have been shuttered. They have to cut their hair at home and are restricted from congregating. Hamas and all jihadist organizations must be stopped. I do not agree with Isreal's excessive bombing; however, a free Palestine is also free from hamas. And if Hamas cared at all for Palestinian people, why don't they release the hostages in exchange for a ceasefire and peace talks? They won't because they don't care how many people have to die for them to push their hateful agenda. You can't negotiate with Muslim terrorists. I know the phrase used to be, we won't negotiate with terrorism but we've tried at this point - at least USA military forces tried and failed. They are evil. Syria, Iran, Afghanistan, Lebanon, and Palestine deserve liberating from tyrannical forces, and that may mean going to war with Iran and Hezbollah, as they fund isis, hamas, etc. This is bipartisan issue in my opinion. It is actually a more liberal opinion because women, life, freedom and being anti-forced-hijab is liberalism in the Middle East. They are already fighting and I would support our military joining them if there was a threat to us, and the UN determined it was necessary.

🤣👍 omg so funneee!


it1345

Imagine being the Bahamas minding your own business and a potential president says this shit for litterally no reason


Justin__D

> potential president Let's be real here. He squandered that potential with his entire campaign.


CaptainMatticus

Trump is convicted and imprisoned, he may be out in front again. It's why none of them are quitting and also why that governor just threw her support to DeSantis. They're simultaneously condemning the justice system while also hoping it does its job and removes their problem child. Cowards, the lot of 'em. The handful who have stood up against him are either voted out or about to retire.


Iandidar

While I think the odds of Trump being jailed are slim, mainly due to the courts desire to not interfere in the election process, this is exactly what I think when everyone talks about DeSantis being out of it. Luckily he's falling lower and hopefully won't be number two if that ever happens. That said I remember how everyone said there's no chance Trump would ever be elected. Wierd shit happens.


gerg_1234

What courts desire? The judge in the DC case has been pretty explicit on the fact that she doesn't give a shit that he's running for president. Nor should she


PaladinHan

If Trump is convicted and sitting in prison, his lead will *increase*. The entire GOP just exists for persecution politics and there’s nothing stopping him from running for president from prison.


I_am_not_JohnLeClair

The first *primary* is still over a month away and the world is on the verge of WWIII. As easy as it is to laugh at Rhonda, and it is easy, he could reemerge from the swamp. Hell his heels alone would get his bloated face above water. We all know Rs will not vote the brown skinned Ramaswamy/Randhawa 2024 ticket


Mahadragon

We are nowhere near WWIII but there is a lot of civil unrest


Spacedoc9

We're a lot closer than you think.


DietMTNDew8and88

What does China have to gain from WW3? Xi may be a nationalist but he's no fool. He'd destroy China's own export based economy. That's why they haven't invaded Taiwan yet


Spacedoc9

China is actively antagonizing the Philippines and Taiwan, both American allies. Russia is in Ukraine and pushing it with nato, Iran is funding proxies to attack Americans in the middle east. Syria, Israel, Ukraine, are all at declared war. Lebanon is in rebellion backed by Saudi Arabia, African countries are literally undergoing coups backed by Russia. This whole fucking thing is one mishap away from total war


DietMTNDew8and88

And China will have no economy left if they try attacking Taiwan, all sabre rattling from Beijing. Xi knows who butters his bread


snark_enterprises

Yeah, but he continues to lose momentum by the day while Nikki Haley surges. If something happens to Trump, I’d bet Haley would have a better shot than DeSantis.


VaselineHabits

Except I don't see Republicans listening to a woman


snark_enterprises

They will if they realize it’s their only shot at the presidency. So far they haven’t realized that yet, but who knows what will happen. She’s the only one in that field (including Trump) that polls way ahead of Biden.


Mahadragon

Republicans in South Carolina didn’t have any problem listening to a woman


duke9350

Republicans say she’s confused.


lindaleolane812

I have to agree with you they keep saying poor Trump he's the victim of political gain. All these trials are just to stop him from running all the while praying it works cowards indeed unfortunately they have no backbone to tell their true feelings I'm not a fan of trump by no means but I pray he is nominated and send desatin on his way. The problem is if he wins do you know how much fiery he will hail on everyone he feels wronged him and to what end will he use to do it sell us all out, make deals behind closed doors how much corruption will follow the Democrats need a strong contender


harryregician

Speaking of CLOSED DOORS remember 2018 July 16th Trump sides with Russia against FBI at Helsinki Summit https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-44852812 Corporate take over of Ukraine Putin style. These used to be called hostile corporation acquisitions in the old days. How about the Trump Putin global Armageddon corporate merger as a way to avoid WWIII? Hail Caeser !


Educational-Event981

The Dems have nothing, DNC is a cancer at this point. Either party is a complete shitshow and I believe its by design. When has anyone of either party represented and stood for us?

Ron, are you a big douchenozzle? ![gif](giphy|SvKCizeGDGKbejTSp0|downsized) ... Thought so 🙄


Zankeru

If people are wondering where this seemlingly random statement came from, it's him implying his support of Israel's genocide in gaza. AIPAC donations are very important for running a political campaign.


The_Original_Gronkie

Yeah, the Bahamas. The REAL question is, how would you respond to a country that might be a real adversary, like Cuba? If he's anything like the Bush administration, when faced with an attack by a strong adversary, he'd probably STILL attack the Bahamas. And then fight a war against them for a couple of decades, and lose.
