Who are you supposed to vote for when you feel it doesn't matter? Or when you feel that all candidates are insufficient?
Additionally, if we're speaking of the US, the electoral college can and will supercede the popular vote. We literally put these people in power just to say we're wrong and they will quickly say we're wrong and work against the popular votes because we gave them the authority
Ah yes the classic, “i cant decide between voting for fascism or against it. Really tough choice”
Is the one trying to overthrow democracy the fascist or the one funding the ethnic cleansing?
The one that wants to overthrow democracy and would like to fund the ethnic cleansing at an even higher rate/amount is the fascist. The one that has encouraged Israel to go faster / do more in Gaza is the fascist. I do not like Biden's weakness confronting Israel, but one is a cheerleader, and one is weakly pushing for caution.
Giving Israel the means to continue ethnic cleansing is more than cheerleading. Not that it would be acceptable if he were just cheering it on.
There's no evidence that Trump can do anything that Biden already isn't already, barring sending American soldiers to participate in the genocide which I doubt would be politically feasible for him. Israel doesn't need our soldiers, they do need our bombs though, which Biden has provided without any effective conditioning.
Not just funding but delivering planes, bombs, and weapons.
