“We recognize that, in the next four years, our decision may cause us to have an even more difficult time. But we believe that this will give us a chance to recalibrate, and the Democrats will have to consider whether they want our votes or not.”

That’s gotta be one of the strangest reasonings I’ve heard in a while.

    Incredibly shortsighted. This conflict has no easy solution and everyone involved wants Biden to take their side.

    The trouble here is that the democrats coalition has stakes in both sides. This entire conflict was practically a gift to the republicans.

      Biden will win some and lose some no matter what he does. He’s probably not too concerned about this.

        Ok, since it’s not a big deal and he doesn’t need to worry, no blaming these people if he loses. If he doesn’t need their votes to win, they can’t cause his loss.

            Right here. Don’t know how you missed it.

                  the original post suggested not worrying about appeasing certain people on the issue as there is a significant support from all sides.

                  That’s different than whether people who didn’t vote for Biden can be blamed for anything. When democracy itself is on the ballot it’s hard to justify voting against it, regardless of some foreign policy grievance.

                    If they’re so insignificant that their concerns can be safely ignored, then they’re too insignificant to blame for losses.
