They say the democrats have voted for arming Israel continually with trump. That’s just not true but is an incredibly common tankie point I’ve seen over and over again. Democrats have voted over and over again for stopping arming Israel. Literally go look at their voting records for the past 9 months.

Dem leadership still voting for it
17 of 50… that article doesn’t state what you think it does. And each bill has other things tacked onto it that Dems have to worry about as well. It’s not just “vote or not vote” for weapons.
If 17 if bad then 19 voting to stop weapons even last year is proving your point completely wrong. https://www.jta.org/2024/11/21/politics/19-senate-democrats-back-unsuccessful-attempt-to-block-weapons-shipments-to-israel
But of course facts don’t really matter here do they.
Vote in April: https://www.axios.com/2025/04/03/senate-democrats-cancel-military-aid-israel
Vote in June: https://ramirez.house.gov/media/press-releases/ramirez-jacobs-jayapal-pocan-18-members-congress-introduce-legislation
Notably those are the ones with terrible other stuff in them. Can’t win here.

Dem leadership is completely and utterly committed to Israel. There's some voting no but they're still refusing to distance themselves from Israel.
You're also ignoring one of the non voters who missed the vote to go on a press tour about how much she hates what Israel is doing.
But yeah totally not what I think
Fucking lol
So Biden stopped the war and didn't break federal laws to keep it going, while telling people in Israel to keep the war going?
We’re not taking about Biden. And Biden was more than 9 months ago. Learn to read. We’re talking about senators.
We're talking Democrats, so yes we are.
We are not, we’re talking about votes, which Biden (and the president) does not do.
As we all know, the president has no sway over the party as it's leader. He can't veto anything either too.
The original comment in the original chain was directly about democrats in Congress voting. My comment was directly about that. You are the one changing the conversation to make it easier to attack. I am not talking about Biden, I explicitly was excluding Biden for this exact reason. This has nothing to do with Biden’s presidency and solely to do with the current democrats in Congress in the current year and absolutely nothing else. In fact I explicitly mentioned trump’s term.
Your fallacies are tiring, either stick to the conversation or bugger off.
Thank you my business is really suffering under Trump we need Gavin to bring in the AI REVOLUTION
