Since 2020, Joe Biden’s support among working-class voters of all races has fallen alarmingly. Here are seven ways he and his party can reverse the slide.
That lack of anything Isreal related is fucking frustrating. There’s so much assumption that “working class” means completely ignorant about international policy.
Some of these points are good but the one that would knock it out of the park is increasing tax and spend - especially if accompanied by an increase to the range of tax exempt income (raising the floor of the bottom tax bracket).

If you assumed “American” meant completely ignorant about international policy, you’d be correct more often than not - and this is coming from an American who does follow foreign affairs. So why would “American working class” be an exception?
Given how many people are upset about those polices, to the point of using armies of police to harass college students for being against those policies, it seems that it is an important issue to a lot of Americans and its not exactly a secret how unpopular current international policy is. They might not be average Americans, but those who are likely to vote democrat are those people they’re using violence to silence.
Are people upset? This started out defining working class as non-college. I see protests at colleges and technical people (like you’d see on Lemmy) are more likely to be college educated than the general population is.
I mean, I’m asking seriously, I have no idea. This elitist coastal college educated libtard has no clue what the racist gullible uneducated flyover people who falls for Trump’s BS think
He is as anti Israel as he can be. Usually anything less than full throated support would lose the election for a candidate of either party. And he’s still managed to condemn them a little bit, and is building a pier for aid delivery to Palestinians so fucking hmas can’t steal their aid. Like there really isn’t much more you can ask of a us politician without basically asking them to forfeit the election.

Not really…the average person doesn’t care. It’s two bullies throwing rocks at each other in a sandbox halfway around the world. If anything, the Palestinian protests of late made the US care even less about it. IMO, just pull out of that whole shit show and let them sort it out on their own.

Hate to break it to you, but foreign policy will not win you any election except if the US is at war.
Don’t tell Lemmy users that! Don’t ruin the narrative!
