You know, if Biden were to (somehow) win in November, it would be interesting to see the "vote blue no matter who" crowd try to explain away Biden (inevitably) doubling-down on his support for Israel's genocide to a far greater degree than he is doing now.
Wishful thinking on my part, I suppose. The liberals will simply do what they always do - go to sleep as soon as they have a lib in the Waffle House and pretend US foreign policy has (magically) changed because of it.
I predict that they would double down on denying Biden's willful role in continuing funding for a genocide and offer some convoluted mental gymnastics for why "he has no choice" but to do so.
I base this prediction on how they responded in 2021 when he extended the wall and opened more concentration camps at the Mexican border. Even then, they were acting like it was justified as long as it was Biden doing it instead of Trump.
Cultlike behavior tbh
