I just hope they learn before it's too late that the people who stand idly by and/or vote in support of genocide of Palestinians because they're not Palestinian are the same people who will do the same with queer people like us because they're not queer.

They're already turning the corner on immigrants. The recent Dem bill is more extreme than any border laws passed under Trump. And now it's getting even more extreme with the new bipartisan version.

Stop using us as a shield to protect your horrific genocide. I wonder if their daughter even knows they're appropriating her queerness to support slaughtering tens of thousands of children.

Who decides who's blue?

Maybe this will finally be a wakeup call for people who go around saying "vote blue no matter who"

No, our goal is to steer Democrats to produce a candidate that will beat Trump in November.

If Biden continues taking planks from the Republican platform then he won't win.

If Biden appoints an AG that completely ignores Republican crimes and instead appoints special counsels to trash Biden, then he won't win.

So you don't think they should be able to try to vote on Ukraine aid again since the vote failed in the House?

Damn those Macedonian trolls must be working overtime to hijack polls to put Biden's approval 17 points underwater and put him 5 points behind Trump.

Apparently 86% of Americans are Macedonian trolls who think Biden is too old to serve a second term.

All these Macedonian trolls that barely trust Biden more on climate change, gun violence, and abortion than trust neither Trump nor Biden.

The Florida Democratic Party's executive committee voted to cancel their primary at the end of October 2023 and declare Biden the winner

The Tennessee Democratic Party decided to list only Biden as a ballot option for its primary after a November 11 meeting

The North Carolina Democratic Party acknowledged receiving requests for ballot access from Phillips and other candidates, but chose to only include Biden for its primary

The Democratic Party of Wisconsin left Phillips off the ballot; he appealed to the Wisconsin Supreme Court on January 26, 2024. The court unanimously ruled on February 2 that Phillips should be included on the ballot.

Gotcha.

Bazinga!

I'm super impressed by your ability to ignore literally everything I wrote.

Biden is the worst candidate of the bunch by that metric. His favorability is 17 points underwater right now, and he's losing to Trump in most recent polls by around 4 to 6 points. And keep in mind that that's measuring popular vote, not electoral votes. Hillary won the popular vote by 2 points and still lost the election. Biden needs to lead Trump by at least 3 points to even have a chance, it took a +4.5 margin to win last time around. And while we're comparing to Hillary, her favorability was only 15 points underwater in October after the Comey report.

Cornel West would be a way better choice. Even Dean Phillips would be less bad of a choice (y'know that whole "lesser evil" thing and all that). In polls, a generic Democrat leads Trump by 6 points.

But it's all a moot point because Democrats keep shutting down primaries and removing candidates from the ballot. They're attempting another coronation just like they did in 2016 - why would any candidate try to run when the party leadership is shutting them down?

Rafah is pretty much the last place for people to go, that's why 3/4ths of the population is there at this point. There aren't any "safe zones".

Holy shit, liberals really are gonna hand the presidency right over to Trump again, aren't they

 

Biden is self-destructing his own campaign.

 

The U.N. Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) estimates that the city’s population has grown to at least 1.4 million, more than five times its prewar count, with thousands of people sleeping in tents with little protection.

That's nearly 3/4ths of the whole population of the Gaza Strip at this point.
