As the president begins his last international trip before the election, the fear in the crowd is that conflict in Gaza is tripping him up.

    Then it behooves all of us who want to stop Trump to give them other reasons to vote for Biden. We need to let them know that Trump is not going to be any less supportive of genocide and it’s either Trump or Biden. Voting third party or abstaining won’t change that.

    It helps if you try to convince people to vote on down ballot races too. Too many people think president is the most important thing to vote for when local and regional elections can matter far more on a personal level.

      It also behooves Biden to just… not. Is supporting Israel’s genocide so important to him that he’d rather let Trump win?

        There is no point in waiting for Biden to change.

          I don’t need him to change, I need him to do what everyone else is already doing for him, that is do something he doesn’t believe in so Joe Biden wins the election.

            Okay, there’s also no point in waiting for him to do that either. If that’s what you’re waiting for in order to vote for him, you might as well just vote for Trump.

                …or you can work on getting out the vote to prevent the guy who literally says he’s going to be a dictator get into office.

                Your bizarre “we have to force Biden to do something or fuck it all” attitude is so ridiculously unhelpful.

                  Helpful? The defeatist attitude isn’t helpful either. Why are people being held to higher standards than the dipshit they’re being asked to vote for? It’s easier to get one old piece of shit to act to his own interests and do the bare fucking minimum and stop murdering children than to convince a lot of people to support murdering children.

                    How exactly is me saying that it behooves us to educate people a defeatist attitude? I’d say that “Biden needs to do this or else I won’t vote for him” is defeatist since you know he won’t do that.
