“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.

    Biden had two jobs:

    • Prevent open war that brought in other countries
    • Not signal his profound preference for Israel over Palestinians

    I’m a middle aged white dude and it was transparent as hell. What are people sho share a religion, language, ethnicity or something else going to think? “He’ll fight for us?”

    If we need to win, we can’t do it by acting entitled to votes or just dropping key electorates because… Dunno.

    “Don’t talk about reducing tensions” was a bold move.

      Biden had two jobs:

      • A “safe” status quo candidate that appeals to older voters and could beat Trump
      • A stopgap against mask off fascism.
