The president has been going after his presumptive 2024 opponent with a little more venom than usual
Joe Biden is taking it to Donald Trump.
The president’s campaign responded to Trump’s wild press conference in New York on Monday by slamming the former president as “weak and desperate — both as a man and a candidate for President.”
“He spent the weekend golfing, the morning comparing himself to Jesus, and the afternoon lying about having money he definitely doesn’t have,” the statement read, adding that “America deserves better than a feeble, confused, and tired Donald Trump.”
How does that make them equal?
No one said it was.
If you can vote for a president who not only went around Congress to fund a genocide, but also went around Congress to prevent aid to the victims…
That’s your decision that you will have to live with
Maybe that’s not a big deal for you. Maybe it’s harder on me because I’m a third generation disabled veteran.
But everyone has a line. I truly help the DNC gets better before your line is crossed.
I hope you do understand that Trump isn’t any better in this regard - he isn’t just going to continue funding Israel like Biden currently is, he’s already expressed his full support of Netanyahu’s genocidal actions and will seek to help him further.
You can choose not to vote, but understand that if enough people come in with that same attitude, Trump will win, because his supporters don’t care what his policies on Israel are, they just want him to win.

Like, I’ve explained everything you’re asking about multiple times already… If you can’t understand it, maybe it’s because you’re jumping around this thread and replying randomly to different comments?
I just don’t see the point, unless you’re intentionally just trying to waste people’s time.
I know understanding complicated political issues is hard, and I 100% understand if you just give up. But don’t go to the same thread and reply to the same person to have the same conversation you gave up on.

Mostly because other people already have echoed the exact same sentiment I would have, and I figured it wasn’t worth chiming in. However, as nobody has bothered to reply to you here, I thought I would.
Having said that, if you really want my view, I’ll give it to you…

What you explained is that you’re in a state Biden is likely to lose, and that to have any chance of him winning you think the DNC would need a much more progressive candidate. That’s a valid viewpoint…
However, refusing to vote in protest because of that is just plain stupid. For all intents and purposes, it’s a two party system, so refusing to vote for one party helps the other party - which in this case is Trump.
And as far as your question goes, they’re not mutually exclusive. I can blame the DNC shifting slowly closer and closer right in order to appeal to moderates whilst also blaming all of the protesters who think they’re just one person, who think their refusal won’t affect anything because everyone else will vote anyway - you act morally righteous when in reality all your protesting is doing is helping those who’d do far worse.
And that brings me to what you haven’t explained, at least not to me - how can you refuse to vote Biden because of him continuing funding towards Israel whilst knowing that the person your protest would enable doesn’t just want to continue the very same funding, but also openly supports Netanyahu in his genocide!
You’re either acting as a useful idiot cutting your nose off to spite your face, or knowingly trying to disenframchise the people who would vote for Biden. Neither is a good look really.

You make it out like you’ve got a galactic brain, 1000 IQ, incomprehensible opinion when in reality it comes down to either you vote for the future of democracy, or you do nothing and doom it whilst moaning that we should’ve all done better.
