The administration claimed that blocking arms transfers would embolden Hamas — ignoring Israel’s genocidal slaughter.

“You can push Biden to the left once we win!”
“Murder is bad? Defend Ukraine, not Israel?”
“WHY DO YOU HATE AMERICA?!”
Yeah, actually it could have been easier to push the Democrats left if they actually won. As it stands now no amount of pushing changes the dynamics of the House, Senate, and Presidency.
88% of Americans didnt approve of Israels actions in gaza and Biden supported it anyway. Why would Dems change long standing policy after the election if they won? Its a ridiculous idea thats not based on historical fact at this point. Thats without even considering AIPAC bribes having locked both the dems and repubs into supporting whatever they want, forever-- bribes paid for using american taxpayer money disguised as “aid”. Israel is the only foreign aid recipient who gets all their money up front, and a big chunk of it can be spent as they please, not earmarked for weapons or purchases in the US. They can buy hookers and blow with our aid money if they want to. Of course they will use some of that money for bribes and election interference.
Like we did with Biden after he won. Which is how we got our minimum wage increase and cannabis rescheduling.
And codifying Roe v. Wade!
And stimulus checks every month!
And making sure COVID was managed and not ignoring it like Trump!
And ending police brutality!
And protecting LGBT rights!
And making a green new deal!
And…
How? At that point they would have gotten what they need from you and toss you aside as a used tissues for all its worth
I think so too. But the Democrats themselves have effectively messaged that they will not bow to public pressure to be better.
