I've seen this comment from many of my moderate to conservative friends about Biden, and from my liberal to progressive friends about Trump, and I'll give the gentle warning here like I did to them - playing at "someone else is pulling the strings" is, unknowingly, playing into long standing anti-Semitic tropes, and such accusations should be levied with great caution.
