    Biden doesn’t need my support right now. He needs it on election day. Until that day I’m going to criticize his actions (or lack there of) and how he runs his campaign (as is my right as an American) because he’s doing a bad job (again) at making people want to vote for him.

    It shouldn’t be this difficult to beat an open fascist like Trump, but Biden is putting forth only token efforts to actually earn votes. He can stop payments to Israel. He can stop weapon shipments to Israel. That would earn him votes on the left, but he’s too busy courting the right to bother. Too busy arguing with the ICJ that what’s going on isn’t genocide.

    Yeah, Nikki Haley signed some bombs. Joe Biden signed the check that paid for them (metaphorically).

      Excellent take. We can all be in agreement that Biden deserves criticism and needs to change positions, and then vote for him unhappily on election day if nothing changes. We don’t have to throw out the baby with the bathwater.

      Better the devil we know than the ones explicitly telling us they will be worse.

        Did you miss my first three sentences? I can still be critical of a candidate that I plan to vote for. We all should be more openly critical of the candidates we support. It promotes better candidates and lowers the tribalist walls that keep us insulated in our echo chambers.
