     The idea of “we should elect a businessman for president” sure has panned out great hasn’t it?

    How to be successful in business: Maximize profits.

    How to do that? Reduce expenses, increase revenues, or both.

    So how does that translate to government? Reduce expenses = cut services. Increase revenues = raise taxes.

    The last kind of person we should be voting for is one who claims (if not brags) that he’s “a successful businessman”.

    But thank you for your use of the word “extreme”, which indicates that you recognize that not everyone in any of the above-cited conflicts holds such genocidal opinions. And, for those who aren’t genocidal, a 2-state solution is not only possible but desirable. It does that cause no good to just flatly assert that it’ll never work. Because, if not, what’s the alternative?

    Let me guess. You also think that vaccinations have been known for centuries to be ineffective and are only a loyalty test by Democrats, right? How close did I come?

    Remember what Mitch McConnell said in the aftermath of the January 6 insurrection? Because apparently HE doesn’t!
