    If you think there was a genuine argument to not vote for Harris over Gaza war crimes, you were amongst those successfully manipulated by Russia. That argument was entirely of America’s enemies’ making as a means to get Trump elected.

      You are absolutely correct. The unfortunate fact is that propaganda works. Even if you know it is propaganda, it still works.

      A bit like a placebo in that regard.
