What happens in November is up to Biden – it will not be the fault of the protest voter if Trump is elected. The questions remain: does the Democratic party fear Trump as much as we do? And does it value its voters enough to shift away from an approach to the onslaught in Gaza that a majority of Democratic voters are against?
You know what’s worse than denial of the right to choose? Genocide. That’s what we got for electing Joe Biden last time. Fool me once, etc, etc.
… completely ignoring the only other option was “even more genocide than that”. We didn’t get genocide because we elected Joe Biden. We got genocide because right wingers in Israel want to conduct a genocide. Removing Biden from the equation and replacing him with Trump does not improve the situation. Doing that would be the actual foolish move.
So why not just say “I will not run for reelection, I have too much controversy, let’s run someone else.”?
Instead they are just barreling on with this motherfucker.
Edit: To to too.
Because the incumbency advantage is incredibly powerful, Biden has beaten Trump before, and no other viable Democrats have indicated they want to run this election. I too would prefer someone else but it’s not like Biden there aren’t solid strategic reasons to run him again.
If Biden steps down then the dnc won’t be holding everyone else from stepping up.
Or maybe he could just STOP SENDING BOMBS and we would have much less of an issue.
If it’s too much trouble to get enough Americans to decide that we should stop sending bombs to kill kids then we deserve what we get
Ah… the: “I’ve chosen this hill for everyone to die on” gambit.
Thinking like a child. May age bring you wisdom and peace.
Ah the “I promise, we will work on the things you ask for next time if you just work with us again one more time” gambit.
Keep voting for the people doing the opposite of what you want. Good luck inducing change
I don’t know… I like most (there are two in particular I don’t like) things on this list: https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2024/02/02/joe-biden-30-policy-things-you-might-have-missed-00139046
That, by definition, is “doing what I like”. If you’re holding out for your perfect candidate you may as well throw away your voter registration or admit you’re a troll farm employee.
Never thought the day would come when I’d be told that not doing genocide is too high of a bar to ask my elected officials to clear.
Age never brings wisdom or peace. I hope he offends his master and gets exiled to Siberia. Fuck these trolls.
We got genocide because Biden refuses to hold Israel accountable for its actions like even Ronald Reagan did. Don’t pretend that he doesn’t have blood on his hands.
You keep ignoring the fact that Trump would be worse and it makes you look like a shill
“Serial killers get to kill multiple people, why can’t I kill just one person?!”
You have the intellect of a 14 year old.
