    Ok, then tell me who that candidate is who can win instead of Biden.

    I’m waiting.

    I am not super fond of Biden, and wouldn’t mind seeing him replaced. But my top priority is harm reduction, and switching to a candidate who can’t beat Trump would send USA into turmoil

      If your top priority was harem reduction you wouldnt be supporting the one causing the most harm right now. And not just Palestinians, us included

        Are you saying Biden personally is causing the most harm, and that Trump wouldn’t cause more? Or do you think it’s irrelevant that acting as you suggest would make things worse?

        I don’t disagree he’s handled it bad, but your options are between pressuring him to do better or Trump wrecking everything he gets his hands on

          If you haven’t realized it, there is no ‘pressuring Biden’ I’m not saying that Trump would cause more harm or Biden is causing more harm. Harm is harm. People are dying. People are being starved. It doesn’t matter who is doing it, right now the greater evil is Biden. He is the one actively engaging in killing and starvation of people. If people would move beyond the bullshit concept of lesser evil and simply accept no evil, then we might be able to progress as a country.

          If you haven’t noticed both of them work in tandem to benefit the wealthy against the needs of the working class

        Something tells me that if Warren was the option you’d still have a litany of complaints about why you weren’t going to vote for her
