    People will suffer more abroad under trump as well.

    They’ll suffer more abroad under whichever President comes next. The ratchet only turns one way.

    I’m not sitting passively by; I have been organizing direct action groups to protect Planned Parenthood from intimidation

    From the police? I mean, good luck.

    Do you think for a moment trump would be less bullish on helping Israel?

    Joe Biden has demonstrated a zealous support for the Israeli state that pales beside any President before him. Even Reagan knew enough to tell the Israelis to back off of Lebanon.

    When the Biden Administration has actively encouraged the sitting Israeli government to exterminate a full percentage point of the Gazan population inside a few months, the problem isn’t in what Trump could do but what the current Democratic Administration cannot. Biden’s refusal to halt the bombings and killings means he’s absolutely unacceptable as President.

    In the same vein, his refusal to close down Gitmo, his refusal to end the violence at the border, his refusal to intercede with the DOJ and protect women seeking legal abortions in red state, and his general inability to contest his Republican rivals in anything more than rhetorical jabs means he’s setting the party as a whole up for failure.

    This is absolutely beyond me. I don’t get to decide if Biden gets a second term. First Term Biden is doing that. He’s destroying his own ability to rally voters and ceding policy to the oppostion without a fight. He’s ceding democracy without a fight.

    The asshole couldn’t even get DC statehood over the line. TWICE, now, despite Congressional majorities in both '09 and '21. Those votes in the House, the Senate, and the EC probably would have helped him out.
