Are you getting paid by Genocide Trump?
Plenty of people here are upset about Israel.
Trump is not better on any metric. He's not even better on Israel. Kamala has seemed to be skeptical at the very least on Israel, if not quietly opposed to it. (There was some reporting that she didn't want to go against Biden and his supporters).
Trump doesn't care about life. He cares about his ego, even if it meant the deaths of others.
Maybe I'm completely wrong, but I've gotten the impression you're a left winger who doesn't believe in compromises. And I think that's an incredibly naive position.
Trump right now is lying about FEMA and immigration. His rhetoric, as well as the people on his side is getting people killed through the power of bad decisions.
The president is very limited without the support of Congress, but we're not going to make any kind of progress unless we accept whatever progress we can make.
The biggest reason why the right wingers constantly win in this country, is that they don't care about the compromises. Way too many of them have literally voted for people who were openly Nazis/openly Holocaust deniers.
We're not going to be able to make any progress on Climate Change or Trans rights or woman's rights or the housing crisis or healthcare or Israel or Ukraine, if we're not willing to accept small steps in the right direction. Republicans beat Roe v Wade, because they understand the importance of small steps.

Only possibility is for the oldest Repub to resign during Trump, allow for fresh a red candidate to fill their place…though this isn’t even very likely. |
Democrats are pushing to expand the court.
There has also been some push to impeach Clarence Thomas.
Most of this has more to do with Congress, which is always going to be an uphill battle. Things are only going to get worse if people aren't pushing in the right direction.
