Biden forced Israel to restore water access in Gaza within the first few days of the “war” kicking off. I know that’s super “bare minimum” bullshit that Biden doesn’t deserve praise for… but also it’s still more than Trump did.

The issue with Biden is he’s not president right now, Bibi’s still an asshole, Hamas is still an asshole, and Trump is still the biggest asshole of all.

You're missing the obvious. Hamas and Netanyahu didn't want to negotiate.

Do you or do you not feel your rights are better protected by Trump?

There is also his speech in 1875 Des Moines, Iowa.

"... that the dividing line will not be Mason and Dixon's but between patriotism and intelligence on the one side, and superstition, ambition and ignorance on the other."
