Trump is worse than Biden on anything and everything. But if any president can get away with supporting a genocide campaign, is this not the way they get away with it? By simply claiming it will ruin their campaign efforts?

It's sad ppl only read your first sentence and then are fully satisfied with whatever shit you throw on, as long as you don't specifically say 'Biden is really bad'

I think it's Biden's responsibility to not support genocide, he owes it to his voters, and if he wants to keep them, he needs to change.

A president has already gotten away with it. Trying to selectively punish Biden now is actually a bit of hypocrisy. We should have done it in the first place. But we largely got in that position because of people who couldn't bring themselves to vote for Clinton, etc.

Biden's moves are optically bad. But make a lot of sense as far as strategy goes. Traditionally. You have a much more powerful position to bargain as an ally than as an enemy. But that does not stop people like yourself from making hyperbolic claims.

Don't get me wrong. Eileen, libertarian and communist. I have no real investment in Biden. I'm simply intelligent enough to know that he or Trump are going to win. And that he is by far the better choice. Which you yourself said. You just want to make some example of him despite your own face etc.
