In a letter published Wednesday on Medium, an anonymous group of Biden’s campaign staffers demanded the president call for a ceasefire in Gaza, citing concerns that not shifting his policy on the issue could hurt his 2024 chances.
“Biden for President staff have seen volunteers quit in droves, and people who have voted blue for decades feel uncertain about doing so for the first time ever, because of this conflict,” the Medium letter read.
“It is not enough to merely be the alternative to Donald Trump,” the campaigners continued. “The campaign has to shift the feeling in the pits of voters’ stomachs, the same feeling that weighs on us every day as we fight for your reelection. The only way to do that is to call for a ceasefire.”
Not campaign at all. Which I’m sure someone here will interpret as being identical to campaigning for Trump.
It pretty much is, or if they push to a 3rd party who will end up taking away 5-10% of the vote, that’s just as good as campaigning for Trump.
Stein, Kennedy, West have absolutely no hope of winning even a single state, much less the election, but they will make it certain that Biden doesn’t win.
Really? Everyone who isn’t actively campaigning for Biden is campaigning for Trump? Is there anything else to which Biden is entitled by virtue of being the second worst candidate?
If I don’t sell everything I own and donate every dime to Biden, have I actually sold everything I owned and donated it to Trump?
Everyone who isn’t actively supporting Biden will make sure Trump wins. Yes.
Well, you’ve certainly worked out who to blame.

Can you provide an example of a US election where a POTUS has stood aside from reelection and a better candidate took their place and won?
I’ll go ahead and wait.
That the ego of most presidential candidates won’t allow them to seriously contemplate standing aside doesn’t mean that there arent better options.
Arguably, Clinton standing aside in 2016 might have prevented Trump. Alas, the ego of both her and the party elites would not have allowed it. So thanks for Trump I guess, DNC.
If Trump beats Biden, the loss is on both the idiots who love Trump and those in power in the DNC who refuse to embrace alternatives to their Chosen Few.
Well now that you ask, you also need to talk about how amazing the economy is, and how young and vigorous he is, and like how much safer we are with a secure Israel and stuff.
Any conversation that isn’t talking about how amazing Biden is, is propaganda for Trump.
(Excuse me while I go wash my mouth out.)
So if I’m not out bothering my neighbors by knocking on doors and littering the highway with signs I’m campaigning for Trump?
If you aren’t supporting Biden you are actively helping elect Trump. Yes.
Libs are fucking deranged
Case in point.
Yeah who needs political activism anyway! Oh wait… that’s how we got into this fucked mess in the first place.
You can absolutely be an activist who doesn’t work under a particular party or politician
Yes exactly. Like the displaced mentally ill guy who yells at the commuters downtown. Completely free of corporate entanglements.
