Trump assassinated a top Iranian general and only called off a full-scale attack at the 11th hour. All but eight congressional Democrats voted for bills in opposition to this. The idea that Democrats are the war hawk party is a face-meltingly awful take.
There's a bad trend here of pretending Democrats are worse than Republicans. Democrats suck, everyone here knows that, but holy shit get some perspective.
Dems aren't worse, but they are more frustrating because we actually pay attention to them in case of the rare person/policy that deserves some support. With reps, there's zero illusion they'll ever do something good, and I think that combo messes with people's perceptions.
