    Aside from this whole Israel/Genocide thing, Biden has been a pretty solid leader despite a completely dysfunctional congress.

        Unpopular take here on Lemmy, but when was the last time the USA didn’t support war on some country inhabited by people who aren’t white. I don’t see Israel as some kind of special exceptional case here.

        Also obviously Trump wouldn’t stop supporting Israel. Or maybe he would only because he needs all those weapons to fight a civil war.

        Yeah, that’s totally fair, and I haven’t given him a cent even though I’d normally have thrown some cash by now, and the thought of it, as an American jew no less, makes me a little sick. But before October I would have. But our government also tends to have a momentum that’s hard to redirect so fast.

      Dude fucked the BBB, forced federal workers back into the office, blocked the rail strike and has Yellen and Powell in an outright war with American workers.

      He’s a “solid leader” for people who are retired or about to retire.
