Obama’s comments appear in a new video supporting Gavin Newsom’s Proposition 50 which would allow the California legislature to draw new congressional boundaries ahead of the midterms
Barack Obama has entered the political fray ahead of November’s special election in California, accusing Republicans of attempting to “rig the next election” in a new ad backing Governor Gavin Newsom’s Proposition 50, a ballot measure that could reshape the state’s congressional map.
“Republicans want to steal enough seats in Congress to rig the next election and wield unchecked power for two more years,” Obama says in the 30-second ad, urging voters to approve the proposal. “You can stop Republicans in their tracks.”
And has Newsom said he’d like to add to that list?
That was not my point.
My point is that waging war (or military operations if you want to keep the masks of civilization on the face) is bipartisan.
Even Barack Obama waged war during his term (and received a nobel peace prize for that).
A lot of countries did manage to deescalate conflicts and wars they were involved with (at the very least, most of south american countries for sure) and managed to have diplomatic relations without treating to bomb another country.
US politics is a war-waging politics.
I’m not American and I have no say in your internal affairs or whom you’ll elect.
I’m just voicing that the “global south” is tired of being into wars or being bombed by the “Western Civilization”.
It seems like you want to have a barely related discussion on American imperialism in a thread about Gavin Newsom.
True. Tanks for pointing out and I apologize for that.
