Different person than the one you think you're replying to. I'm in favor of them protesting and left a comment saying so to this same top level comment.

Biden has spoken against it though. We have also decreased aid slightly (at least at one time but then we passed an aid package...). Trump has only said that they should finish the job. It's a pretty large difference. It sucks, but we do have a choice to make and one choice is significantly better even on this single issue than the other. Then if you look at trans-rights issues and all the other stuff, it's pretty clear.
