    Binary race. Pick between the two.

    I’m sure that’s what you want, but the Trolley problem actually does offer a third choice. And a significant number of people made that choice, so we could sleep at night. I went to funerals of Gazans killed by Israeli massacres. Do you think I could vote to kill more, based solely on hope against all evidence that it could be better? Harris refused to commit to even lightly pressuring Israel, to recognizing the state of Palestine, to stop blocking votes for Palestinian statehood, to even investigate war crimes. Everyone in north Gaza will be dead before inauguration; that’s on Biden/Harris not Trump. Talking to Palestinians, they saw no difference between Biden and Trump; both armed Israel and blocked each and every UN vote to help Palestinians. Trump cut all refugee aid to Palestinians and Biden continued it. To them, Biden and Trump are just shades apart in terms of actual policy regardless of Trump’s hateful speeches. Biden even fought his own party and majority public opinion to help Israel more and increase weapons shipments without preconditions.
