    That analogy is very flawed

    two choices

    Nope. Binary race. No other contender has a chance.

    promised to sit and watch

    Binary race. Pick between the two.

    she was better than Trump

    Ah! So you get it.

    Harris was promising to do exactly the same things Biden was doing in Palestine

    Ah! So between the two, neither offers a better plan for meddling in another country’s politics. It’s a tough thing when neither choice for America happens to support that one other country. It’s also then not a discerning factor then, in a binary race, when determining the best of two options.

    If you don’t choose, you need to accept what comes down to a coin flip.

      People were making this argument every day before the election and it didn’t work.

      Trump was always worse. But Harris still had to win people’s votes. If this argument worked we would have had Hilary in 2016.

      You need to actually have something to offer beyond the other side being worse.

      These people are seriously throwing a tantrum because Arab voters didn’t vote for their friends and family to be murdered. This is insane.
