I agree with this. What was certain and predictable was that Harris was a war candidate (the Democrats presided over the first year of genocide and were intending to continue).

MAGA was going to be bad in some way, but the Democrats were very bad in very known ways, so voting for whoever was at least saying they were against war was the rational decision for anyone who cared about not having genociders at the helm of the state.

Both Harris and Trump were identical in that respect, so it shouldn't have swayed your decision.

This implies that Donald Trump/Republicans weren't pro-Zionist and didn't support Israel which is obviously untrue.

The truth is there was no "non-genocide" candidate between the two parties and pretending otherwise - particularly by voting for Trump - was simply self-delusion.
