    It’s almost like the Israel/Palestine issue was completely irrelevant to the election since there were only two choices and both treated it the same. Yet only the Democrat candidate lost votes over it. Funny how they worked. It’s almost like someone engineered it

      Dems lost votes because they count on votes from the very people they are genocide, or votes from people very opposed to supporting genocides.

      The GOP didn’t, because they don’t count on those votes.

      It’s not “engineered” it’s a matter of respecting your voters.
