You said "Lieberman's final warning to Biden" implying he stated this to Biden directly. He didn't. And Dersh isn't credible.

I wrote ‘final’ bc he died. I didn’t mean it in the ultimatum sense. That’s on me. Jews are always very active and invested politically: voice, vote, pocket book… The wellspring of support that Biden had in October has evaporated. The motivation is gone. No good polls have been done yet to confirm this.

"The wellspring of support that Biden had in October has evaporated" seems like hyperbole (I assume you are talking about American Jewish support of Biden). Biden has IMHO done an admirable job managing his support for Israel with the larger geopolitical and national political issues he is grappling with. Roughly 70% of American Jews typically vote Democratic . I suspect the numbers will be the same in November.

For Jews, this year is different from all other years.

I'm a Zionist American Jew with relatives that were attacked in Nir Yitzhak on Oct. 7. Please don't presume to speak for "the Jews". Whatever one thinks of the Biden Administration, Trump is a man who sought to do away with the rule of law, culminating in the false electors plot and Jan. 6. My prediction stands: most American Jews will vote for Biden on Election Day for that reason.
