    I don't see why he wouldn't be, he was the President.

    Sure, nothing like Oct 7 and Israel's response came up during him but as others have said Trump's policies did contribute to it.

    Whether Trump will be just as bad or worse is not relevant. What matters is that Biden (and Harris) have allowed the genocide.

    Honestly, such reasoning applies more to Harris, "she has never been the President, maybe it's just rhetoric". The only point for Trump is that "he's incompetent"

      I'd say on foreign policy alone Trump is a potential minor improvement.

      Trump has no political loyalty beyond himself. He could absolutely be convinced to pressure Israel depending on the media cycle. 99/100 he'd end up being about the same but there's always the off chance that his idiocy leads to a good outcome. Something like demanding other NATO states contribute to Israel and then blowing it all up when none of them do. He's unintentionally contributed to de-dollerization and a weakened America Empire.

      Harris knows exactly how the sausage is made and she's an full-throated supporter. She will never have a better outcome because she is ideologically committed to the worst outcome.
