In a Truth Social post, Trump attacked Biden − and Hamas − by accusing the president of “taking the side of these terrorists, just like he has sided with the Radical Mobs taking over our college campuses.”

    No it didn’t. Those protests are driving the change we keep seeing in the news, and I applaud them for it. They wouldn’t do anything but get arrested and vilified if Trump were in office, as he said in the posted article.

    [Biden is] ”taking the side of these terrorists, just like he has sided with the Radical Mobs taking over our college campuses."

      I don’t think Macklemore is on Lemmy.

      We can offer evidence and opinions, but people are gonna vote as individuals, as they should. Motivating others to vote for Biden was always going to be an uphill struggle because of his age, but with the ongoing genocide… whew… it just makes people defensive and hardens their resolve to defend their position.

        That’s fine. Healthy debate is good for the democratic process. Biden certainly has flaws. I personally see many more in Trump. The point is, people should vote, and encouraging others to abstain is disingenuous and unethical.

        As for the genocide, Biden is currently pulling away from Israel and Trump literally just said that the US should do the opposite in the posted article. That’s not really an argument.
