The poll found 50% of Democrats approve of how Biden has navigated the conflict while 46% disapprove — and the two groups diverge substantially in their views of U.S. support for Israel. Biden’s support on the issue among Democrats is down slightly from August, as an AP-NORC poll conducted then found that 57% of Democrats approved of his handling of the conflict and 40% disapproved.
That’s why I voted Biden. I voted Biden in the general election (but voted Bernie in the primaries) because I wanted everyone out of the nightmare circus that was Trump and the Republican regime. A regime we haven’t seen so devastatingly retarded since the Bush era. Right now, it’s way too dangerous to allow Republicans total control. It’s like, look what they do when they’re in Congress. Look what they do when they control state governments. They are totally in another realm of reality far off from what we classify as normal today.
I wish we would’ve ended up with Andrew Yang at least if we couldn’t have Bernie. I like Democrats because with Democrats, the worse that they can do is just make small mistakes but mistakes that can be repaired. If we elect a single Republican, that’s 4 more years of irreversible damage we’re not going to recover from and it’ll take over maybe several terms of presidencies to fix maybe a handful of problems.
The Trump administration made Bush II look like FDR
I mean, so am I.
But I also don’t get drunk at bars and then drive home. Lots of other people don’t make that choice, even though it seems super obvious.
We can pretend those people don’t exist, we can complain that they should know better, but they’re still going to make the same decision if we do either of those things.
So why not try running candidates that will actually try to do the right thing once elected instead demanding they vote for whoever is less terrible?
For some people, voting is a huge hassle and positive motivation works better than the threat of a potential negative
