Let me just put this right here: I would prefer an embalmed Joe Biden propped up in a wingback chair to Donald Trump on his best day - if there is such a thing. The brouhaha brought on by the gratuitous Special Counsel report on Biden’s document retention was quickly enhanced by Biden’s latest gaffe. He swapped the presidents of Egypt and Mexico in a press conference - called to demonstrate his mental acuity! Oops.
Joe Biden is funding and supporting genocide. He is most definitely not a good or kind man. There's also his numerous lies, his smearing of the trucker involved in his wife's death, his bragging about writing the crime bills and the bankruptcy bill, and his utter lack of concern for American poor and homeless.
"Equivalence" as currently used in political arguments is mostly a dodge to avoid admitting that two ideas, people, and countries are both horrid. The retort "false equivalence" avoids the question because no two ideas, people, or countries are identical. I try to avoid the word outside of mathematics (e.g., equivalence relations). So no, I'm not suggesting that Biden = Trump. I am suggesting that both are awful in different ways. After four years of Trump and three years of Biden, I see no compelling reason to vote for either of them. At present, I don't intend to. I have a hard time imagining voting for one or the other: I didn't in 2020. I didn't vote for Trump or Clinton in 2016. I'm leaning toward a write-in vote for Dennis Kucinich even though he's not running. I really don't favor any declared candidate. But I don't think they're equivalent: that would be silly.

I don't claim they will be. Criticizing Biden isn't praising Trump and vice versa.. I wonder if liberals will ever realize that.
HCR and Robert Hubbell both had great letters/posts today, but you hit the nail on the head!! thank you.
Tell the people of Gaza how fine things will be during a second Biden presidency. Tell everyone in Ukraine, too.
You hatred of Trump leads you to try to give cover to Biden as decent person. Yet he has vastly more corpses to answer for.
