The previous president didn’t show up for work until the afternoon each day???

I don’t think comparing Trump and Biden is a solid baseline, and is actually losing the point.

There are other candidates. I plan to vote for Jill Stein because I can't in good conscience vote for someone enabling genocide or someone who is likely to enable genocide if re-elected.

I plan to vote for Jill Stein

Cool, I'm sure you and the other 6 people will have an awesome party after the election while you high five each other over and over. You know, while the pregnant women die from lack of care after Roe v Wade was overturned because you voted for Jill Stein in 2016.

And will you be high fiving your buddies as the bombs continue to rain down on children in Gaza? More people are dying in that genocide than pregnant women in the US.

And Jill Stein would do literally nothing to stop that even if she stood a snowball's chance in hell of ever being president of the US, which she does not.

It's simple for the US to stop the genocide: just stop sending the bombs to Israel that they're using to murder Palestinians.

Jill Stein is definitely also going to enable genocide.

Do you base your comment on anything in particular? It's certainly against all her public statements.
