    Yes, the Russian invasion of Ukraine. I edited for clarity.

    My point is both descriptions are accurate, and sensationalism is polarizing. The wrong language could keep her out of office. This reaffirms the understanding that she’s left of Biden and miles from Trump. That may be all the conviction we get before the election. That doesn’t mean that’s all she has to offer.

      Calling a genocide what it is isn’t sensationalist, regardless of whether or not you think there would be political blowback for her to state that plainly.

      You’re couching an implication that describing it as a genocide is an exaggeration in pragmatic language.
