Biden overrode Congress in multiple occasions to spend hundreds of millions of us tax dollars to rush bombs to Israel. To me, that’s 100% on board with genocide.
After Harris already had the nom, she said her policy on Gaza would not differ from Biden’s at all. And then she went on tour with Liz Cheney. To me, that’s 100% on board with genocide too.
And yet, he also negotiated the only cease fires that actually happened. Israel violated those cease fires, Harris made some noises about being skeptical... If quiet noises
Whereas Trump was calling for a new Trump tower in Gaza.
You see how one option was significantly worse right?
No, you still aren’t getting it. I’m saying if Dems held a primary election, we could have voted for someone who actually wanted to stop the genocide. Immediate ceasefire can be achieved by stopping all financial and arms shipments to Israel until they comply with full ceasefire and let international aid workers in. Dems refused us this option, then useful idiots show up afterwards and try blaming the voters for this mess we’re in, instead of who should be blamed - the politicians who are bought and paid for by Israel/AIPAC. It’s disgusting, they serve a foreign government before us. For that matter, do you even know who Biden was throughout his career? There is perhaps no other US politician more up Israel’s ass, and that is really saying something.
Those little ceasefires in the first year were simply testing the waters for how much Israel could get away with while the US protected them from the UN and ICC. Turns out, it’s unlimited genocide and total land theft.
Just because you didn't bother to vote in the primary, doesn't mean it didn't happen.
Sure, basically no one bothered to run against Biden, but he won't it fair and square.
Or do you mean having a second primary after the media blitz forced Biden to drop out?
Since you don't seem to have a long term memory, I'll remind you that there were several court battles in various states launched by Republicans trying to get Harris kicked off the Ballot, because again, Biden won the primary.
Those efforts fell apart, but only because Harris was on the Primary ticket.
And yes, Harris also fucked up by letting Hillary Clinton's campaign manager run her campaign.
Or we can talk about Biden going back on his initial promise of serving a single term and retiring.
That's only a single one of Biden's many failures, starting with appointing Marrick Garland.
But what we should not be talking about is a bunch of whiny bitches who complain about not getting a special second primary election when they finally bothered to start paying attention to politics after a bad debate performance by Biden.
