    Spinning this off into a separate comment as it's a tangent, Trump is also very much a Zionist btw.
    He only acknowledges that the tide of public sentiment regarding Israel is turning which isn't the same thing as opposing Israel's actions.
    His recent statements about how Israel should "finish the job" imply that he thinks they need to genocide quicker not respect a ceasefire.
    I don't see any evidence that any less Gazans would have perished under his presidency.
    If you have some please share.

      Trump is a Zionist too but Biden is actually perpetrating the genocide right now. Once trump is in office and doing the genocide we can oppose him but stop getting mad at hypotheticals and get mad at reality

        Why even mention Gaza if a Trump presidency wouldn't have lessened the death toll?
        I'm mad about Gaza also as I can be mad at more than one thing.

        Is grabbing a fire extinguisher at the first signs of smoke worrying about hypotheticals?

        Idk what exact shape a second Trump presidency would take but us citizens of the imperial core taking some precautions against political violence towards anyone to the left of center, or at the very least being mentally prepared for said violence, is just smart right now, considering the writing on the wall.
