    Hey now we can get someone even less progressive than Biden, who will be just as bad on genocide as Biden (so will do nothing to make things better for all those single-issue voters who also somehow thought Trump would be better on genocide) and will soft pedal us to the right instead of the rocket propelled sprint to fascism that Trump would bring.

    Feels like a bit of a lateral move to me.

      Joe is an extremist when it comes to Israel, even for a right-wing democrat. He literally went around Obama to make promises to Netanyahu during their term. If we get someone without dementia and who is less enthusiastic about killing palestinian children that’s still a net benefit.

      Harris is best to mitigate legal challenges.

      You do realize the Dems booted Biden because he wasn’t polling well in any of those categories, right?

      What do you people not understand about this? Biden is a certain loss to trump and your genocide gets far worse. Ffs.
