Vader didn't blow up a planet. He didn't stop it from getting blown up but he was more of an accessory to it.
Trump didn't stop Jamal Kashoggi from getting murdered with a meat saw, so I guess they're similar that way.
Was he particularly in a position to stop that?
Stopping him from getting murdered by the Saudis? Maybe.
Done something about it afterward? Definitely.
He did do something about it... he blew up an Iranian General...

Yeah, all he did was help Palpatine build the Death Star, and it was Tarkin who actually gave the order. Do these anti-Vader people even understand what his role is as Sith Lord?
These single-issue voters who refuse to vote for Vader just because of the Aderaan issue are just helping Palpatine. Why does everyone suddenly care so much about Alderaan anyway?
Humorless and missing the point deliberately as usual, I see.
Meanwhile in the real world, Trump explains how he regularly phones up Netanyahu to convince him to ditch Biden's ceasefire plan.
And Biden pretends to be upset about that while overriding congress to send him more weapons, completely unconditionally. Just like how he's been unconditionally supportive of Israel his entire career.
Don't confuse your conspiracy theory cope that Biden or Kamala are secretly pro-Palestine, contrary to all their actions and statements, with "the real world."
At a certain point, arguing that they're legitimately trying and failing to rein Netanyahu in, when he's completely dependant on our protection, means arguing that they are so absurdly and comically incompetent that shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the levers of power for fear that they might slip on a banana peel and catch themselves on the button that launches the nukes. They're not idiots, they're doing it because this is what they want.
I love how you talk so much about the Democrats as if the Republicans wouldn't be worse and as if Trump hasn't admitted to phoning Netanyahu frequently to tell him not to agree to Biden's ceasefire plan.
My criticism of the Democrats has nothing to do with the idea of the Republicans "not being worse." I just believe, unlike you, that truth doesn't stop being true when it's inconvenient. Party loyalty has rendered you completely incapable of acknowledging reality, whether you can't see it, or whether you do see it but won't admit what you see.
I'll ask again since you refuse to answer: do you think that Biden needs Trump's approval to stop bypassing Congress to send weapons to Israel?
Biden shits his pants "Why would Trump do this?"
When did you stop hitting your wife?
Are you denying the fact that Biden has bypassed congress to send weapons to Israel? Because if so you are dead wrong.
