    Biden is going to hand the 2024 election to Trump on a golden platter if he doesn’t change course, even though everyone who isn’t braindead knows Trump would be doing exactly the same.

      The Israel situation won’t swing the vote. Most people support Israel blindly or don’t care enough to be knowledgeable.

        A couple of recent polls asked “What is the most important issue to you?”.

        About 30-35% said “the economy”. Only 1-2% said “Israel/Gaza”.

          Why would anyone expect it to be much higher than that? People are selfish and that’s not entirely unreasonable when it comes to politics. It makes no sense for a foreign policy position to be the determining factor when deciding who to vote for, especially when we have so many problems here at home.

                That’s 85.000 children starving over a 4 year period alone. 380.000 total civilian deaths over 8 years.

                Did you see a lot of protests to call for a ceasefire? Do you feel their deaths are less worthy?

                  OK, so what do you need to do is take it over the last three consecutive administrations like you said.

                  That starts with Obama for eight years, trump for four and Biden 43 going on four.

                  Say what you mean and mean what you say.
