The former president has publicly waffled on the Israel-Gaza war. But he told wealthy donors he supports Israel’s right to continue “its war on terror.”
I understand that but right now what do you want me to do about it?
I don’t know.
Really and truly. I’ve written my reps, I’ve stood with protestors, I’ve been very vocal about my feelings re: Israel’s horrific retaliation
I get that. I live in Texas. Writing to my rep and senators results in a form letter thanking me for agreeing with them (contrary to the content of my letter), followed by fundraising mailers.
We are discussing an election in November between Trump and Biden, right? So what do I do with that?
Only thing to do is vote for Biden and take a really long shower afterwards.
Trump will make it objectively worse for Palestinians. So I will vote Biden.
Likewise. I fear that absent change on Biden’s part, he will lose anyway.

This is the really important part the enlightened centrists and blue MAGA in this thread are ignoring, much to their own peril if they’re to be believed. Biden does actually suck. His outmoded policies are so unpopular, his campaign so devoid of energy, that him losing come November is virtually guaranteed. He’s down in polling in every swing state but one. I know it must be very embarrassing to the card carrying democrats, the prospect of losing to the criminal traitor Trump. But if Biden doesn’t change course drastically and immediately, it’s going to happen. And most importantly - it won’t be the fault of the voters who point to his shortcomings in public discourse. The blame rests squarely on the shoulders of Biden and the DNC for not allowing any alternative whatsoever.
So considering that, thank you @[email protected] for speaking truth to power in such a hostile landscape. Hopefully it doesn’t completely fall on old, deaf ears.
