In this hypothetical situation you only get to choose one.
Sending weapons to Israel.
Joe Biden wins the 2024 election.
Refusing to answer, coming up with a third option or saying the question is stupid defaults to option 1. Weapons are shipped to Israel and Biden loses the 2024 election.

Seems like I’ve explained it pretty well.
People would probably parse it better if you put the two options as
"1. Joe Biden sends weapons to Israel
Choose one."
That brings the contrast you’re trying to communicate more clearly, I think, connecting the loss of the election with the continuation of option 1.
Whereas phrased as it is now, many are interpreting it as “I know you want both of these things, but you can only pick one”.
I love sending weapons to Israel, if only Joe Biden would also send weapons to Israel this choice would be so much easier!
… Then they’re interpreting it correctly.
Most of the people you’re asking don’t want both. At least not the people you’re asking here on the Fediverse.
Then they shouldn’t have any trouble answering. Just like you didn’t.
