Biden being their best chance of defeating Trump is scary enough.
Not the best, just the only one, because nobody else is being considered
I think that may be a distinction without a difference.
Gotta keep the israeli agent in power
I mean, I feel your frustration, but I don't imagine trump would be any better in that regard
Well just apply his words, immigrants tainting blood... His position would be to fully support Isreal and wipe out any foreign blood that could come near their borders. Expand their borders for "sake of security" agaisnt said foreigners and then start over.
The “their” you reference is the Democratic Party. It’s the party’s best chance of defeating Trump. People with better chances don’t fit well enough within the party to get their nomination.
And the only reason the Democratic Party has a say is because the U.S. political system was designed to only allow one of two winners. The system is designed so that any third party offering will fail, and their attempt will harm the party with the “nearest” compatible beliefs.
It’s a shitshow. Built poorly (on purpose to preserve power of the political elites), and litigated to be even worse, so corporations can bribe those elites.
