This is the same sort of rhetoric that centrists are using against the Palestinian/Muslim/Arab community in the Midwest, who are pretty ripshit angry at how Gaza is being handled, and are being turned off to voting for Biden because of it. Yes, I know that Trump would be far worse than Biden for them and their families abroad. But at the same time, you can’t just tell someone “vote for this man who is letting Israel bomb your grandparents and cousins because the other guy will do worse”. Best case, they’ll tell you to fuck off.
Disregarding and belittling the very real and concrete concerns of a demographic groups in swing states that will be highly critical to keeping Trump out in November is courting disaster.
