Let’s take this through to worse case for both sides.
Harris doesn’t intervene in a foreign conflict.
Trump becomes Emperor of USA (would that even be their name), women are slaves, anyone not white and male is threatened with violence, democracy dies, USA become an authoritarian, racist, violent oligarchy, the world burns through climate change and conflict… and Trump doesn’t intervene in the same conflict.
Trump will definitely intervene and bomb the shit out of Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran. This is the guy who took the most insane extreme option and killed that Iranian general.
I’m not sure how “tens of billions of dollars of military aid” counts as not intervening in a foreign conflict.
It is a bit galling to be told endlessly that we must shut up and choose when the choice is “genocide or more genocide”, even when the reason Harris is on the top of the ballot at all is as a result of speaking up about the issues with Biden. I’m not all that comfortable merely accepting that, to escape the chopping block myself, I must remain silent about my family members. I’m sorry that Harris is so tied to Israel’s expansionist agenda that my inability to stomach rampant slaughter is threatening her and the Democratic party’s chances against Trump and the Republican party, but I can’t let some tens of thousands of killing go.

Or intervenes more… to help the genocide proceed faster.
BTW, he’d also hand Ukraine to Russia so that’s another genocide right there.
Telling racist lies that Haitian people are eating pet cats is a Blood Libel prelude to domestic pogroms.
And Taiwan to China. What will happen with Phillipines?
