Not really.
If you’re not in a swing state then you could throw your support behind your preferred third-party candidate, or write in the name of literally any person you can think of who would cut off aid to Israel.
But not voting just says you’re OK with whomever the other voters pick for president. It says you don’t see a meaningful difference between Biden and Trump. And if you honestly don’t, OK, you’re allowed to think that. But in November, unless one of them dies, either Biden is going to win the election, or Trump is. The want to discourage people from voting against them. If you’re not voting you’re neutral so they don’t care as much.
There isn't one
This is great lol I'm surprised I haven't seen this sooner. Can anyone (with more technical ability than myself) do a mashup of the opposite? I fear it'll look scarily similar to Biff from Back to the Future.
We do have
and 
, which are face mash-ups of every republican and democrat senator, iirc.
Trump doesn't need to be combined with anyone to look like Biff
From a pragmatic point it would be easier for the propaganda apparatus to explain away a smaller than usual turnout (voters are lazy, etc.) than a larger than usual this party vote.
Either way they'll do their best to bury it though.
That's why I advocate "undervoting". Go vote, cast a ballot, but leave the spots with no good options blank. It shows that you aren't a "lazy" voter, actually voted, and chose the hidden "none of the above" option.
I'm not ok with anyone being president because the USA shouldn't exist and there's no way of expressing this sentiment through voting for president. The president is an administrator of a death machine directed by capital. There's no option for me to vote how I truly want nor do I believe calling for specific votes would be an effective route to secure my goal of nullifying the constitution and installing a communist government. Instead of worrying about the particulars of which genocidal fascist gets into office, I'll instead direct my efforts towards dismantling the USA in its entirety.
