In the final paragraph she finally says what she really thinks.

Given how catastrophic another Trump term would be — including in Israel, where the far right fantasizes about his return — I find people who threaten to withhold their votes from Biden maddening. But if Democrats want them to come around, listening to them will be more effective than lecturing them.

    I don't believe her. I think she's simply trying to seem reasonable. She's written a number of "If Trump wins..." scare columns. She's surely still going to write at least half a dozen more. When/if Biden makes a super-minor request (not even a demand) that the Israelis cut the genocide by ~1% - she'll write a column that will be rushed to print. She'll say it's time for people understand Biden is doing all he can and Americans must vote for him to save democracy.
