      You can’t get extra dead. Here’s the IPC’s take on Gaza right now-

      The famine threshold for household acute food insecurity has already been far exceeded and, given the latest data showing a steeply increasing trend in cases of acute malnutrition, it is highly likely that the famine threshold for acute malnutrition has also been exceeded. The upward trend in non-trauma mortality is also expected to accelerate, resulting in all famine thresholds likely to be passed imminently.

      Those kids aren’t going to be alive in November.

          I freely admit he won’t help them. I’m also telling you it won’t matter by then because you can’t be extra dead.

            Helping elect the guy who wants all the Palestinians dead so his son-in-law can have beach front property, while also making everything else worse isn’t the moral high ground you seen to think it is.

            And no, whatever third option you’re talking about isn’t going to win.

              It’s not an either/or question. There isn’t some secret vote where Trump gets points for disaffected Democrats. And the other choice is to just not. Or Biden could follow the laws of our country and stop supplying a genocide, and stop fucking with asylum. At this point he’s going the wrong way for me to vote for him.
