It wouldn't cause all Democrats to flip on Israel, but a lot of Democrats are only supporting Israel because of inertia. Supporting Israel is just normal, so that's what they do. If Trump were president it would force them to rethink how "normal" their support actually is.
You're underestimating how much Democrats hate Trump. If anything could force them to rethink anything it's agreeing with him.
Heh maybe so, but is it really worth the risk of the damage Trump would do if he were in office again? Judging by your nick, I'm sure you're aware of all the harm he's done to the LGBT+ community?
What I'm also aware of is the fascist march against queer folk in the US has been pushing forward unabated under Biden. No matter who wins we'll probably see the first bans on changing gender on birth certificates, we'll probably see a challenge to gay marriage Court jurisprudence, and we'll probably see hate crimes against us continue to rise to new horrible heights.
Under Trump Dems were out in the streets, but Under Biden all the Dems just sit at home and don't do anything about it. Dems only care about queer folk (and Black people and religious minorities and immigrants) when it's politically convenient.
Not in my name.
