We can root for Bernie without creating a false equivalency between Biden and Trump.

Did you read my comment? It's not a false equivalency, it's what their records show. Trump so far has not done anything as disastrous as Biden's crime bill but Biden is not as much of a liar as trump is and doesn't flash his corruption in the open like trump. Trump personality wise is far worse than Joe Biden, that's for sure. But when you look at their history, you can't say Biden is better than Trump in every aspect, can you? Now if you disagree, shoe me something as bad as the crime bill that Trump has implemented? As far as actual damage, I think Bush is far worse than Trump. I can be honest with myself about different presidents and political figures. I don't have to pretend that no nuance exists and it's rare to find anyone that is worse in every imaginable metric. Mitch McConnell and Eliot Abrams and Mike Pompeo might be exceptions.

But the past doesn't equal the future.

There is no reason to assume that Biden would maintain his past position on that particular issue. If we compare Biden's current platform (not his platform over twenty-five years ago) on these issues to Trump's, I would take Biden any day.
