Democracy is intended to make having the top job conditional on following the will of the people.
If a waiter says fuck you, you don’t get fries, I want to throw shit at you, they get fired.
If a president says fuck you, you don’t get basic human decency, I want to exterminate brown people, he gets fired.
THAT IS THE ENTIRE POINT OF THE SYSTEM.
If he wants to continue being president, he has to make with the basic human decency. It’s not a hard concept.
And if the guy who will surely get hired instead is a monster and it’s desperately important for everyone’s sake that he keep the job, then it’s HIS responsiblity to do the fucking job he’s hired for.
Every four years, there’s a performance review. People decide whether hiring the guy was a mistake - and if he doesn’t measure up, they don’t extend his contract.
You obey the people who give you the job, or you don’t continue working there.
The people want Biden to stop helping Israel exterminate Palestinians - and indeed, to put significant and effective pressure on Israel to stop doing it altogether.
If he won’t do that, they won’t vote to extend his presidency for another term.
That’s the entire point. That’s what democracy is for.
If your leader is being a piece of shit, you get to dump his ass. Otherwise, they could keep on being pieces of shit, and nobody could stop them.
It’s a vastly insufficient mechanism, but it’s the only one we’ve got.
Biden is being a contemptible piece of shit. He can stop doing that, or he can look for another job.
It’s not “this guy, yes or no”. It’s “this guy or that guy”. The position will be filled. You get to pick which of the two candidates gets the job, but there are only two candidates.
Given that all your complaints with this guy are also present in the other guy, except way worse, I think you should choose this guy.
'tis not doesn’t work. You need to actually make a case for your position.
People vote for you, or they don’t. Their reasons are their own - but if you’ve pissed them off and blatantly done things they didn’t want you to, chances are this will not go well for you.

That’s literally not at all how the Presidency works and it’s a terrible analogy.
It literally is how it works.

It is for this guy.
Go spit in your boss’ face, then tell him he can’t fire you, you’re the best candidate available. See how long you keep getting paid.
Accountability, motherfucker. Do you speak it?
That’s why it’s a shit analogy. It doesn’t work like that at all.

So you’re okay with a Trump Presidency?
Nope. So it’s Biden’s job to prevent that, by not being an unelectable piece of shit.
