    We can have different political views, but we have one view. The one view is we’re the finest, the greatest nation in the world. We should focus on that. And we should focus on dealing with our problems and coming together … and stop the rancor. We have to bring the nation together.

    I don’t think any amount of togetherness is going to stop Palestinians from being slaughtered. And “greatest nation in the world”? Come on…

      Israel/Hamas aside people who say “bring the nation together” rarely realize it’s very easy for us to be brought together if they would just agree with me.

      I have yet to hear a U.S. president not call it the greatest nation in the world.

        It doesn’t feel as threatening coming out the mouth of someone who isn’t massively supportive of an active genocide.

      Genocide. Nationalism. Collaboration with foreign dictators. Union busting…
