I saw on “Open Secrets” that Biden accepted over $1mil from Israel donations and have to wonder if it has impacted the DNC’s stance. I’m admittedly unfamiliar with the intricacies and open to information that would go against this assumption.
He’s a self-proclaimed Zionist, so in his eyes Israel can do no wrong. I think it’s one area where he can’t be moved, even if he didn’t take their money. It’s sad, really, that he tarnished his very good policy record and his legacy. He will forever be known as genocide Joe.
