    Getting Trump would be worse than Biden so if they’re logical they will Vote Blue No Matter Who… but fuck your position is pathetically apathetic. We can make a ruckus and demand change because we know that if Biden agrees to our demands it increases the chances he’ll win the election.

    This would normally be part of the primary process but we didn’t get one of those.

      What, exactly, will Trump do differently from Biden when it comes to the US-supported genocide? More weapons? More money? More political cover?

      Consider: As long as Biden is president Dems aren’t going to get behind stopping the genocide.

      So no. When it comes to stopping Israel’s genocide: Trump is an improvement because then at least maybe there will be some change from the Democrats.

      I’m not apathetic - I’m realistically describing the situation.

        Are you just trolling?

        Trump moved the US embassy to Jerusalem. Trump tried to ban muslim immigrants full stop. Trump has cozied up to evangelicals and those fucks are scary. Trump thinks wind turbines are ugly and supports expanding fossil fuel dependency. Trump stuffed the Supreme Court to overturn Roe and he’s supporting a national abortion ban.

        Trump is worse.

          If Biden disagreed with the decision to move the embassy to Jerusalem - why didn’t he move it back to Tel Aviv?

          Everything else you listed has no bearing on added support for Israel. Also: Israel oppresses Muslims harsher than anything Trump has proposed, and they actively court evangelicals in the US.

          Has Biden done anything to discourage that?

          Roe v Wade, Energy policy, SCOTUS … it’s irrelevant when compared to supporting genocide.
