If Biden gets reelected and we do the "each party gets two terms then switch" dance that has been going on now for decades, it will be 2036 before we have a chance of electing a president that will hold Israel accountable for its actions.

Which president would that be?

I'm holding out until 2043 when the average age of presidents is around 100 and they're so senile that they communicate with grunting noises. Then we can have their personal support worker interpreting it like a fucking geriatric oracle of Delphi.

That'll be much better. PSW ain't got no lobbyists.

Please reconsider, it would be trained on reddit users data.

Oof, yikes, didn't consider that. Well, at least it can't be bribed with money or power, can't be intimidated, and won't go senile. Though it may hallucinate.
