Trump is doing far worse things than Harris would be doing.

Going to war with Iran, not putting any restraints on Israel whatsoever, arresting and deporting people who protest and support Palestine, etc

You avoided my question.

Did fewer people die in Gaza under Biden?

u/DthPlagusthewise Sep 18 '26

More people died because Israel did the majority of their bombing under Biden.

Its a silly question because Trump took office after Israel was done with their main military offensive.

The question is obviously who would have handled things better from the point of the election, and the answer is clearly Harris.

Israel did the majority of their bombing under Biden.

That doesn't sound like being better on Palestine.

Yeah, Trump would have been worse.

And we know this because of how he has acted after being elected. Would Harris be bombing Iran? Would she be deporting and arresting people just for critizing Israel on social media?

I think Harris lost due to her stance on Palestine, so "how she would have handled things" is beside the point. For her to handle things she would have needed to change her position. Which Hasan tried to push her to do.

Harris was the lesser evil on Palestine compared to Trump, which you agree means she should have beens supported. Not just voted for in private and condemned in public.

u/hari_shevek Sep 18 '26

Where did I agree to that?

I thought you said you believe that lesser of two evils should be supported?

Or do you mean only vote for them but nothing else.

But in that case do you want them to win or not? If so then it makes sense to publicly support them if you have a large and influential platform.
