“It’s almost a cruel joke on the electorate that the longest presidential election potentially ever might also be the one that they’re least excited about,” said one Democratic pollster, speaking anonymously to candidly discuss the race.

    I was pleasantly surprised with him.

    But you don’t just get to hand wave away what he has enabled, and is continuing to enable, in Gaza.

    If the choice is him vs Haley/Trump, of course I’m gonna vote Biden. But as a negative choice, not a positive one.

      I agree, I just don’t see anyone working a viable path forward, certainly not while getting reelected. Israel is the least terrible choice for a long time. And for a while they were less genocidal about it. It’s going to take some time to turn the ship around on Israel. It sucks, all of it. Pragmatism around a genocide is a fucked thing ain’t it?
