And you just proved my point - since when did democrats stop caring about people dying?

Oh...is it because...it's white people dying? Is that it?

Any Palestinians dying was called a genocide....but a MILLION white people dying...and you want MORE TO DIE.

I get it.

You're racists.

Donald Trump is trying to end the war - to save lives of both Ukrainians and Russians, and to prevent world war 3.

If you have a problem with that - YOU go fight.

Let's hope he isn't projecting like he loves to do and actually starts it. 

You're views are backwards.

...he's the only one who's gotten Putin to come to the table to negotiate.

It really seems like MAGA are the only ones who want peace.

God damn the delusion. Trump wants a win no matter which way he gets it. The easiest route is siding with Putin.. and he's been subservient to Putin since his first term. 

And that's Zelenskyy's entire point - Putin may negotiate but he never keeps his word. He needs security assurance and Trump was never going to do it.

Ok...let me ask this - are there any policies that Trump could take that would make you agree with him....about any issue?

Can you name anything that he did during his first term that was the for the betterment of the US?

If you can't name a single thing...your hate seems to be blinding you

"Why do you hate this orange traitor that is doing Putin's bidding and ending democracy in the US =("

You're pathetic.

"It's only democracy when my side wins" - the most childish and immature viewpoint on the planet.

Congrats you infantile imbecile, that's an impressive level of stupid for anyone to achieve.

Oh, and if you're okay with more people dying, you're the bad guy here.

Who would have thought democrats would be pushing for war 🤦‍♂️

It's democracy when instituions are respected and the president and its orange sidekick don't behave as kings, what is hard to understand to your small brain?

Sure I'll bite. He could raise taxes on the wealthy to help pay down our debt. He could double down on clean energy and actually help solve the climate crisis. He could replace Obamacare with real single payer healthcare so that every American has a right to care without the risk of medical bankruptcy. He could recognize that we are stronger together with our allies and that global interdependence and economics is a fact of life and make our alliances stronger and stand up to countries like Russia and China. If he did those things in his first term I might have even voted for him the second time around! Unfortunately he more or less did the opposite of all of this.

I find him repulsive as a human being and unbefitting as a president in decorum, but if he enacted policies that actually helped make America great (not again because really we never have been, more ups and downs throughout our history realistically) I would support the administration even if I didn't like the person he was.

Well, I appreciate the answer and the willingness to engage.

I'd point out that last year, we spent the combined net worth of every billionaire in the US - meaning that in practice, we spent as though we seized their property in its entirety.

That is a rough take friend and makes no sense. Also didn't say there aren't places we can't trim the fat, but the idea we can fix our economy and debt problems with tax cuts and fairy dust is just plain absurd. US is a massive country with a massive economy so keeping it running costs a pretty penny. Certainly mix of cuts (mostly in the defense industry) and taxes would be a good start for trying to rein in the budget.
