i don’t think anyone serious has suggested that Trump would improve the lives of Palestinians, but i do wonder how many Biden-skeptical folks will return to the fold once they’ve seen more of Trump’s rhetoric about Gaza

Rhetoric is one thing, but what is actually happening right now under Biden is completely unacceptable.

Tell that to the survivors I guess eh? "Orange man would have killed your family worse than Joe." Isn't a selling point.

No, because Biden is also unacceptable on the issue

It cannot, in practical terms, be much worse than what is happening now There is no lesser evil here

People have mostly been smart enough to avoid writing down that Trump would be better for Palestinians but I do think folks have been doing a lot of wishful projecting on Trump's anti-establishment views

Coming around to the idea that about half of the Gaza-taints-Biden folks on social media are actually bots, or might as well be.

I don't care about rhetoric, I care about what they do. I have no illusions about Trump, and also none about Biden. We have two pro-genocide candidates.

Hopefully all of them realize the stakes. Trump would not only be worse on Gaza, he would be worse on most everything and could bring an end to our democracy.

I’m legitimately skeptical what Trump could do to the Palestinians that Biden isn’t actively pursuing. Sell arms faster? Give them away?

I think a lot of people will refuse to vote for either guy, but the problem with not voting for either guy is that is one fewer vote the other guy needs to overcome. Enough people do that, it adds up.

It’s rough, I’ve told myself I’ll stop holding my nose every election for the past few cycles no no avail, we’ll see. The alternative is so much materially worse I don’t know if I can justify it.

if you’re a low to medium information voter who cares about Palestine, your calculus is basically “Biden hasn’t handled this well, I’m less interested in voting for him.” Trump’s express racism on the issue might change that calculus.

I don't think many of the people who are unwilling to vote for Biden over his support of genocide are unaware of Trump's rhetoric. It hardly matters when Biden is still sending Israel bombs.
