The poll found 50% of Democrats approve of how Biden has navigated the conflict while 46% disapprove — and the two groups diverge substantially in their views of U.S. support for Israel. Biden’s support on the issue among Democrats is down slightly from August, as an AP-NORC poll conducted then found that 57% of Democrats approved of his handling of the conflict and 40% disapproved.
I don’t think it’s a ‘strategy’, it’s just reality. Better candidates don’t get the votes, especially in the dnc primaries
Because the moderates running the party don’t want them too…
And like their lawyer told a judge, they’re allowed to interfere as much as they want in primaries because they don’t even have to abide by the results.
Primaries are an illusion of choice. It’s not voters deciding, it’s a survey and they can ask all the loaded questions they want to get the responses they want.
They are the problem, and they’re fine letting a Republican occasionally win as long as they’re still the only other option in four years.
Partly because the same insanely wealthy people donate to both parties.
You think when Trump was giving the DNC millions of dollars that he never asked for anything in return?
You think he just gave away that money for nothing?
As long as the better candidate doesn’t manage to top 40% consistently, there’s no real pressure for any change. If most people are only willing to invest the absolute minimum (or less) in time and energy in the democratic process, that makes it extremely easy for others to get in power. The US has a shit system but the easiest first step would be a popular majority within the own party.
