What happens in November is up to Biden – it will not be the fault of the protest voter if Trump is elected. The questions remain: does the Democratic party fear Trump as much as we do? And does it value its voters enough to shift away from an approach to the onslaught in Gaza that a majority of Democratic voters are against?

    Ah the “I promise, we will work on the things you ask for next time if you just work with us again one more time” gambit.

    Keep voting for the people doing the opposite of what you want. Good luck inducing change

        Never thought the day would come when I’d be told that not doing genocide is too high of a bar to ask my elected officials to clear.

          No one is telling you that. We’re telling you that neither candidate is good on this issue and that the other candidate is significantly worse for the Palestinians.

          We should protest and demand changes from the Biden administration for sure, but refusing to pull the lever for them in November based on this issue makes no sense whatsoever.
