In a letter published Wednesday on Medium, an anonymous group of Biden’s campaign staffers demanded the president call for a ceasefire in Gaza, citing concerns that not shifting his policy on the issue could hurt his 2024 chances.
“Biden for President staff have seen volunteers quit in droves, and people who have voted blue for decades feel uncertain about doing so for the first time ever, because of this conflict,” the Medium letter read.
“It is not enough to merely be the alternative to Donald Trump,” the campaigners continued. “The campaign has to shift the feeling in the pits of voters’ stomachs, the same feeling that weighs on us every day as we fight for your reelection. The only way to do that is to call for a ceasefire.”
So is he handing the republicans the presidency this year or what? Honest question.
Yup. Pretty much.
It feels exactly like the Hilary campaign in ‘16 felt like.
The Hillary campaign wasn’t Hillary handing the presidency to Trump; it was the DNC handing it to him.
As though there was a difference between the two at the time.
The fuck?? No it absolutely does not feel like 16. You are commenting the wildest shit in this post, how many goddamn shit takes you got??? My favorite was when you started crying about “the cult of Biden”
There was not two important proxy wars in ‘16, Trump wasn’t drowning in legal battles, democracy wasn’t hanging by a thread with a party front runner publicly speaking of a dictatorship, so many things are wildly different both internally and externally to the nation.
What does feel like ‘16? People underestimating the danger of Trump (in part thanks to big corps like cbs that spotlight trumps bullshit to normalize it and make money on the clicks), overall unsatisfying candidates, what else???
Even the legal connection is incomparable between literal insurrection and an attack on the voice of the people and the peaceful transfer of power, stealing and sharing top fucking secret docs like specs on our nuclear subs with any fucker who pays to visit MAL and…… Hillary using a private email server.
Ya just like 2016!!!
Get a fucking grip
Referring to campaigns, yes the campaigns feel the same as back then. The same mood.
Obviously other things are different.
You don’t think idiots are culty about Biden? Look at your hostility towards me. Biden is not even a “good” candidate.
His economy still sucks for Americans and while we can blame that on Trump, his continued insistence that it’s not is pretty fucking tone deaf.
His continued support for Israel is equally tone deaf… and you just called it a proxy war, which kind implies the power to stop it. If it’s truly a proxy war, why aren’t you calling for that? And why the hell do you support a guy willing to get not one but two genocidal wars going?
He is deeply unpopular with a broad majority of his supposed base, exactly like Hilary was, he’s ignoring that fact either willfully or because he’s just that ignorant- exactly like Hillary- and his cultish assholes (that’s you at the moment) are jumping down peoples throats for speaking out, hoping to astroturf them back into silence exactly like Hilary in ‘16
Any other perspectives you want to invalidate…. Just like in ‘16, or do you maybe want to consider what people are saying?
You act like you’re entitled to tell people how to vote. You’re not, and if you and the rest of the DNC keep it up… you’re going to find that out again.
If you truly want to defeat Trump, then Biden is the candidate for you- any candidate more progressive than a stick in the mud is practically a shoe-in in comparison to Biden,
You have far, far, far more faith in the American people than I do.
Granted, I have zero faith. But you’ve got a ton more than that.
