    No shit sherlock. Genocide is a US government thing, it doesn’t matter which president or administration.

    Eisenhower 1961:

    “In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.”

    What if I told you, you don’t become president if you aren’t willing to feed the war machine?

    On the flip side, you won’t have the power to enact change if you don’t become president. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.
