Trump is not my candidate. Biden is by far the lesser of the two evils. With regards to Israel and in general.
That doesn't mean that we have to meekly accept him being on the wrong side of history without so much as criticism.
ESPECIALLY when one of the consequences of Biden's abhorrent actions might be that he alienates enough voters for Trump to win the last US presidential election.
Just like people who defended Trump in 2016 saying stupid stuff like “he’s not anti-abortion he paid for abortions”.
I don’t care who you vote for, you’re whitewashing Trump by omission. If you actually cared about Gaza you’d rightfully point out that Trump’s politics and platform is actually worst than Biden’s on every aspect of that conflict. But you didn’t.
I'm not in any way defending or omitting Trump. Read what I ACTUALLY wrote without your tribal "every criticism of Biden is praise of Trump" glasses on.
You're sounding exactly like the people in October and November who insisted that any criticism of the Israeli government that didn't also explicitly call out Hamas was antisemitism.
What Biden is doing is objectively atrocious. He doesn't get a free pass to enable genocide just because Trump would enable genocide harder.
