Trump is Bibi's bestie. There is absolutely no way on Earth he would do a damn thing to end the genocide. In fact, he'll happily cheerlead it, without even the token hand-wringing we get from Biden.
Hell, I would say Biden was the better candidate from a pro-Ceasefire stance, since, at the very least, he is vulnerable to pressure from the left to push for a ceasefire. Trump is not.
In what way is Biden vulnerable to pressure from the left? What are they going to impeach him? The party hasn't listened to those of us on the left in decades.
Trump and Biden are both pro-genocide, yes, though Biden should be held accountable by democrat standards, not republican ones. It's about the party principles in terms of those too, Biden had to pay a price for his fanaticism.
But I was talking about Israel and Palestine/Gaza.
Who did you think I was talking about when I said Trump was Bibi's bestie?
For future reference, Bibi is Benjamin Netanyahu. And if you don't know that, you should probably educate yourself a bit more before talking about Israel and Palestine/Gaza.
Ohhhhh that's what you were talking about about... We all missed that...
Yes, and now we don't have to choose between genocide hard and genocide light. Harris (or whoever) can come in with a generic pro-peace two-state message rather than defending the decision to send Israel big bombs for months. He's off the ticket, you don't need to argue that he's bad but better than Trump anymore. The new candidate can just be not a genocide supporter.
