There is no "worse" than full on, reigns free, genocide. Biden isn't just doing nothing he's supplying the genocide. The only way it could be worse is if US troops were activated to help.
It's a bullshit talking point to pretend Trump could do worse on this issue (especially since it is never accompanied with any specifics about how he'd be worse on this issue). Biden is full genocide support, you might not like hearing that and knowing your vote will serve as an endorsement for continued Democratic complicity in genocide, but that's what it is and is exactly why people simply cannot support Biden without him taking action to reverse his course.
You might be willing to excuse it, many aren't, especially those who have literal family members being killed by US bombs right now. There are no rhetorical gymnastics that make it ok.
Hahaha! Jesus fucking christ, what are you, twelve? Was the first illegitimate trump administration happening while you learned colors and letters? You have got to be fucking joking with this garbage. Nobody can give specifics on how he’d be worse! HAH! For fuck’s sake. If you’re not from America, ok, but otherwise - please. There have been many cogent arguments as to how he’d be worse - do you need help finding them? Are you actually, in good faith, asking? Because I doubt it. And if it’s even a question to you whether trump can manage a competent foreign relations situation, you’re either being disingenuous or comically ignorant.
If you were arguing in good faith you'd be able to at least comprehend why people find it difficult to put their name on a genocide.
The more hysterical you get, the more you just look like an out of touch fanatic who's so jaded that you can't even grasp why people would have a problem giving the Democrats permission to be a party that behaves like the GOP in the very worst way imaginable.
No amount of talking down or being condescending will get you what you want. Use that energy to pressure your representatives.
What? You said,
Which is laughable. Jaded, may be, but not as credulous and ignorant as to think trump would improve the situation in Gaza. Or - maybe you’re just repeating the GRU talking points as directed. I dunno. They’re just coincidentally the same talking points. Biden is the worst ever, trump would do better.
Since you’ve made no effort to discuss anything, we’ll wrap it up then. Good luck with whatever country you’re in.
Even if that were true (it's not) acting like that's the only issue on the table is absurd. Trump will be worse not just when it comes to Palestine, but all around.
