Seriously I’m so confused on this. The USA has a 2 party system. You either vote for Biden or you get Trump. Abstaining from the vote you get Trump. MAGA will have a 100% turnout for their God Emperor.

Trump supports Israel 100%. Again, by not voting for Biden the reality is you’re voting for Trump who is even more supportive of Israel and will also attempt to upend democracy in the west.

You don’t have any options here that support Palestine. The reality of the situation is you either get Biden or Trump and the latter is infinitely worse for the ideal you’re trying to uphold by abstaining. That’s how politics work in the US. You might not like it, it sucks, but unfortunately that’s just the way things work.

    I am not from the US, but what are the chances of choosing a better candidate during the nomination process?

      You can basically forget it happening until 2028. Biden is the incumbent and sitting president and if anyone were going to make a serious attempt at taking his seat from the Dems, they’d already be campaigning and even then it would most likely be a lost cause. Barring a serious upset like an extreme medical issue or death, no other Dem will be taking over the oak office in 2024.
