    Do I need to point out that this is also the logic they used on liberals who were pressuring Biden into giving more weapons to Ukraine.

    Double standards are never good.

    I should also point out that most, if not all the people who were against supporting Ukraine in the war are also being consistent in being against this attack against Iran. So this is also a straw man.

    Politics team sporting is so fucking tiresome at this point.

        Im not equating anything Im pointing out that if this was flawed logic when MAGA used it against liberals it is still flawed logic to use it against MAGA.

        Also pointing out that the anti-war faction of MAGA has remained very consistent in their anti war stance so there’s basically no one supporting this attack. So the people who this post is supposed to be talking to don’t really exist.

      What’s tiresome is rebuttals that are nothing more than appeals to hypocrisy that also conveniently ignore the correct insinuations this meme makes.

      No. You did not need to point anything out.

        This wasn’t even a rebuttal. Just pointing out that whatever this is saying it is not a reflection of reality.

        The move has been incredibly unpopular with his most loyal followers and you could argue he won the elections thanks to increased minority support. What insinuation is there here that isn’t completely incorrect?

      God more of this. Ukraine and Russia wasn’t started by Biden. This Iran strike was a deliberate choice by Trump deploying US troops in a US operation. If Iran retaliates against the US because this was a US operation then that’s Trump who started the war.

      I entirely doubt this is the case. Trump suckers love Russia and Israel because Trump does, so they would be against supporting Ukraine and for attacking Iran.
