The Republican presidential candidate ridiculously claimed that Biden is "trying to hold" Bibi back, as the Israeli prime minister continued to ruthlessly bomb Lebanon and Gaza.

“He’s doing a good job,” Trump saidabout the Israeli leader. “Biden is trying to hold him back, just so you understand, Biden is more superior to the VP. He’s trying to hold him back, and he probably should be doing the opposite, actually. I’m glad that Netanyahu decided to do what he had to do, but it’s moving along pretty good.”

      Dude, it was you who claimed I “missed the point” and explained what your point was. Had you not originally buried your point in sarcasm that was indistinguishable from Democratic establishment douchebagery this might have been a very different conversation.

      Right wing operatives are trying to drive wedges and your playing right into their strategy. Most of the “undecided” rhetoric comes from or is amplified by right wing bots, as does the worst of the establishment scolding. I’m all for calling out the trolls, as long as your not doing their work by not making it clear who your attacking.

      We want the same thing in November, but I don’t think your attitude is helping us get there.

        To be clear - the “leftists” I mentioned above aren’t really leftists. Next time I’ll add the /s next to it to be clear. The whole point of the post was to call out bad faith actors.

        Then you came in missing the point.

        Now as I understand it, you’re suggesting I word my posts better so you catch the sarcasm?

        Nah, fam. Thanks though.

          You decline, but at least putting “leftists” in quotes is an improvement.

          If you can’t be distinguished from the bad faith posts other bots make purporting to be liberals, I guess you’ll just save them the trouble of doing it themselves.
