By showing that the Republicans are worse, like I said. Biden is factually enabling genocide in Gaza, yes. The answer isn't to support Israel, of course, but to show Trump's track record of foreign policy blunders that would lead to acceleration, as a quick example.
If this theoretical leftist genuinely believes there's no difference, they likely haven't read theory, are a fed, or are only interested in virtue signaling and genuinely won't be harmed by Republicans anyways.
My point is that any relative comparison requires both positions to be demonstrated to the doubting, otherwise all that's proven is that Republicans are bad, which we all already know.
Show how dems are less bad, don't frame it as "dems are good actually." That's my point.
