if trump actually does die, the democrats better be on everybody's ass about covering up his decline like they was about biden. because say what you want about him and mental capacity, he didn't die in office.

please get off you fucking high horse he said that 12 years ago and what he meant was the idea of israel being a strong, western force in the middle east is something that the US would’ve strived for if it didn’t exist. “unworthy of the progressive vote” you people are so insufferable, you know that biden was better than trump but you hate the west and the establishment so much you would rather sit aside at let trump win than suck it up and vote for someone you don’t like.
