      Biden is a massive step up from Trump and honestly exceeding my admittedly low expectations, but he really dropped the ball with Israel.

        Like I’ve said in other threads, I agree with you BUT people need to understand that Biden doesn’t have the political capital to stand up to Israel right now.

        We’re on the brink of sliding back into Trump and who knows how fucked up we’re going to get, so he can’t be fighting another fire.

        The US has always sucked Israel’s balls, so Biden is just not rocking the boat.

        I know it sucks, but our shitty political system and the fact that the half the population has brain damage means, he has to tread very very carefully.

        If he blows his little wad on Israel and Trump wins because of it, EVERYONE will be fucked around the world, including Palestine.

        I know we all wish Biden could be the shining liberal giga Chad we want, but US politics allows only so much at a time. Hell, I think he’s done more than I would have hoped for and still part of his base is shitting on him for not doing enough…
