    Has biden truly been uncritical? Don’t get wrong, I don’t think he’s done enough but to say he’s bene uncritical seems inaccurate.

      I don’t think he has been, but that’s the perception among his base.

      And having his base become apathetic is not gonna help him.

      Trump is still managing to keep his own base energized, so they will definitely show up.

      The independents and moderates have mostly decided they don’t want Trump, so Biden has them in the pocket, unless he really screws up the economy or does something else crazy.

      Motivating the left flank to actually show up, that’s going to be his main challenge.

      People broadly seem willing to see through statements the administration makes about Taiwan, but not about Israel. Then again, a lot of critical thought and nuance tends to go out the window when Israel is brought up.
