He's been doing things I like on a regular basis. Here's today's example
Hey good for you! We all have things we care about. Top of my list is not doing a genocide. To be fair, I'm not sure how important the anti-genocide bloc is. I'm sure Biden has people doing the math.
It's almost like he's trying to walk the line around restraining Netanyahu while also not creating a situation which enables Hamas to commit genocide. I can get behind that.
Especially when the Republican position is 'nuke the Palestinians'
Walking the line? Giving billions in lethal aid (very recent "pause" notwithstanding) to a country actively engaging in genocide, is just pragmatism? That's not convincing enough for me. "Hey Jack, we gotta give Israel military and political aid while they bomb children in a barrel, because if we didn't, 200 guys with AKs and unguided rockets might wipe out the most heavily armed and technologically advanced countries on earth!"
Well, I'm sure that voting Trump in (by not voting) is totally going to stop it.
This isn't a both sides bad thing - it's a one side bad, other side literally talking about using nuclear weapons thing.
