yeah you can't be Biden AND have this controversy AND have this little time before the election. A more popular candidate could weather the controversy. Biden could probably limp over if the genocide ended immediately and he had a clean 6-8 months of news. And obviously not supporting a genocide would help. He's faced with a "pick 2 and you win" scenario and he's just hosed.

Biden and Obama were in office immediately after the 2008 crash and their policy was to, basically, reinflate the housing market. Democrats like Biden are never, ever, going to be anything to me except the people who made housing extremely pricey and me extremely poor.

If my polls were cratering with young people on a single issue and I were a politician I feel like I would at least try to pay some lip service to the idea.

"Have the protests changed your policy on Israel?"

"The voices of these students have been heard loud and clear. As always in all my discussions with leaders in Israel I will be committed to protecting innocent lives."

vs.

"No. lmao. gently caress em."

Just political suicide. Just pretend to listen for gently caress's sake. Hold a meeting and nod your head and say a bunch of bullshit, people love that stuff. But no not in this case.

quote:

Joe Biden first ran for U.S. Senate in 1972 as the Vietnam War was entering its waning years. He was not a tenacious anti-war voice, nor did he embrace the anti-war movement, saying he was “not big on flak jackets and tie-dye shirts.” Biden described himself at the time as being married, in law school, and wearing sports coats. He professed a “lack of moral outrage” at the war. He described walking through campus with law school friends one day and seeing other students occupying office buildings in protest. “They were taking over the building,” Biden said. “And we looked up and said, ‘Look at these assholes.’ That’s how far apart from the anti-war movement I was.”

Dems didn't even need to pretend to be functional for a 2024 win, they just needed a coherent candidate.

Obama was terrible but he was a charismatic liar. When people were upset he could give speeches to calm some people down or make them feel seen. When the entire media joined together to lie about all the lovely poo poo he did he was present and visible.

Biden is incapable of that and most people can subconciously recognize that we essentially don't have a president when he appears barely at all and he can't deliver basic sentences much less elaborate lies. The media is trying to overcompensate but people can just feel the difference even if Obama was just as bad. One gets an unearned lifelong reputation of being amazing and the other just frustrates everyone.

Literally any human capable of speaking would make this a competitive race but they demanded to go with the late stage dementia patient backed by extreme propaganda.

The number of dems who want to eliminate Pro-Palestine and Pro-Israel protests, and the number of dems who want statements condemining Palestine or Israel, are almost the same.

also lol at a 50% support for divestment among dem voters when anti-BDS laws have historically had near-unanimous support in Congress. Their party wants that option to be illegal!

If you were going to pick an opponent for your favorite candidate why wouldn't you just choose the village idiot, or a garden slug, or an inanimate object? This isn't a football game, you don't want to see a "good game" you want your candidate to win without question.

There's a post on occupy democrats about how textbooks don't talk about stealing Indian land. Someone brought up the current protests and that sent them almost into a rage. How can they so effortlessly go from "ohhh look at the horrible thing that happened in the past, how could people be so cruel?" to frothing "ARRRRG KILL THE PROTESTORS AND PALESTINIANS NO MERCY NO SURVIVORS BIDEN FOREVER!"
