When you compare Biden to Trump vs. the effects on the Palestinians, were Trump president again, he would not just help the Israelis exterminate the Palestinians, but encourage them to do so quickly- as he's already told Bibi to "finish it". So your dichotomy is more than a bit disingenuous .

They could put Bernie forward, but we'd get Trump.

Bernie would definitely outperform Biden. This is just a fact. Left-Wing candidates do better with higher voter turnout. They get higher voter turnout when people are actually excited about the person they're voting for, especially young people. Young people hate Biden. You can see this from all the protests about the genocide and Palestine he's enabling. Will have low voter turnout compared to Bernie. Biden might lose the election giving us Trump again.

Don't mean to tell you what you already know a stranger. Just saw you being gaslit and wanted you to know that you're not crazy 👈😎

Yeah, how did the Bernie magic work out for Jamaal Bowman? Somehow he is the best candidate but can't get people to attend a rally for an incumbent Democrat let alone vote for him.

Have you considered that? Maybe the amount of attention Americans give the presidential election is many times more than any other election? Do you think Americans are more likely to know the current president and who they ran against In the last election than their own senator? Or their own member of the House of reps?

Do you think that might affect things?

Be serious my dude
