Trump lied and Biden got tongue tied at the first debate. So why is the world only focusing on one?

Biden lied about israel accepting a ceasefire and Hamas rejecting it.
Why has no Democrat ever mentioned this?
Because their "ceasefire" proposal is the same as Russia's was : lay down and give us complete control of your territory, and we reserve the right to continue killing you afterwards.
That's not a treaty, that's imperialism backed by murder.
With all due respect, of which I feel very little is actually due, fuck that.
And Trump has said that Israel should "just finish the job".
What makes you think that he will lift a finger to help the Palestinian people?
And what about your Congress and Senate? Aren't they the ones who send the money and arms to Israel?
Shouldn't you be on their collective ass?
This dilemma would be a lot easier if Trump was the one complicit in Genocide right now and we just had to vote him out. You wouldn't believe the rallies we would see against Trump if he was the one in the driver seat today
Not sure if cosplaying as a Republican was the play for Biden.
Lied continually. Like multiple times.
