That’s where I’ve been, if there is such a thing as a harm reduction candidate I think trump might be it. Ultimately I don’t think it matters who wins in November, amerikkka will continue with their wholehearted support of isn’trael, but trump winning might get some libs to oppose him if only in a “he’s doing what we want but with the wrong aesthetic” way. However they will be quick to go back to brunch at the earliest possible moment.

I am on the fence if he’d be more or less likely to commit to a war with Iran (assuming it hasn’t broken out before his inauguration). One one hand I think he is more war-adverse than current Dems, not for any moral reasons but I think the possibility of losing and looking weak might deter him. The photos of flag covered caskets don’t look great on the evening news.

On the other hand I think he would gladly continue airstrikes and drone strikes against people without anti-air capabilities but he might have second thoughts about a war with bad publicity. Though if isn’trael escalates further and amerikkka spins it as “protecting poor little isn’trael” all bets are off.

In any event hopefully Iran announces a successful nuclear test soon and has a more solid deterrence.
