the funniest part about this post is that trump and kamala's statements here are functionally identical, differing only in the phrasing.

Sure if you ignore what words mean

This is your brain on both sides kids. Don't do both sides.

Explain how 'kill anyone they want' and 'protect civilians' are even remotely the same.

Trump is advocating accelerationism. Kill em all and let $GOD sort it out.

"protect civilians" by providing unconditional support to Israel (this one is also funny, Israel is not protecting civilians, and are instead bombing hospitals, aid workers, journalists, expanding into Lebanon, etc etc)

"let Israel kill whoever they want" by providing unconditional support to Israel (we already let Israel kill whoever they want with no repercussions)

they are functionally the same (unconditional support to Israel), differing only in how they are phrased. one is uncouth and absurd, the other is the Pragmatic Adult In The Room, but they are both saying the same thing.

Do you really believe there would be zero difference under the direction of Trump. You honestly believe the situation would not get worse, that he would just say 'keep doing whatever Biden was doing".

The main difference is under Trump you'd probably see real unconditional support. Maybe it'd be for Israel. Maybe it'd be for Putin. Maybe you'd see Trump hand over all the US bases in Israel to Putin. Hell, he may even throw in some nukes as a guesture of good will! On second thought, why not just use the nukes on Gaza?

Yes, I'm certain now there would be no daylight between those two outcomes.

Intent matters. I feel sorry for people like you that can't see that. If you want the entire area to be turned into glass then I guess vote trump. Go join the useless team of armchair undergrads and I hope you're happy when the death count skyrockets, you'll be on the winning team!

Instead the entire area will be turned into glass under Kamela but hey, she had good intentions! Unlike Trump who would have lead to the same outcome but he wouldn't have those good intentions.

Man this is out of the Kremlin playbook. Your logic makes no sense if you actually think about it for a second.
