"Despite these polls and the passions raised by the war with Hamas, it is easy to exaggerate the power of Gaza as a motivating issue for voters eight months from no-win November. History suggests that foreign policy issues end up as a minor motif in presidential politics unless American soldiers are dying in combat as they were in Iraq and Afghanistan in 2004.”

    100% with you.

    Liberals are anti-war. They are anti-genocide. They are pro-worker. They are pro-care-for-the-needy. The Democrat shift to progressivism over liberalism is what put Trump into office to start with.

    Biden narrowly got through on the bulletproof platform “I’m not Trump.”

    Now he is going into a second election with the bulletproof platform “I have made it illegal for some workers to strike. I keep failing to actually deliver student loan relief. I didn’t get you that covid stimulus I said id deliver ‘first week in office’. I have moved billions of dollars of the public trust to Israel so they can buy the weapons I bypass congress to sell to them so they can commit a genocide in the name of luxury condos. I have expanded military operations almost everywhere in the world EXCEPT the Ukraine. I still hide from the cameras as much as possible because my oratory skills make Bush Jr look Winston Churchill. You will never be able to own a home, ever, and groceries will only continue to go up and up and up while I say ‘Bidenomics work! There are no issues with the American economy’. And I’m still not Trump.”

    It isn’t a Biden problem. Its a Democrat Party problem. But its also a giant Biden problem.

      Aren’t all of those untrue?

        You have lived the entire 4 years with your head literally up Biden’s ass trying to hide from Trump, haven’t you?

        No, its all true. The Democrat party has almost completely imploded. Biden is leading that charge. This is what happens when you “vote for the lesser evil” consistently. The lesser evil gets more and more evil.

        Modern Republicans literally just want to kill Mexicans, Trans people, women who have miscarriages, and force the children they rape to birth their children.

        Democrats are a carbon copy of Bush Jr era Republicans.
