You think they actually gave a shit.

Palestine was just the latest version of "The Issue"

Someone they can make their entire personality to make themselves look good.

I’m surprised we haven’t sortied any B-52s to carpet bomb Palestinians yet tbh

FAFO! Big time. Bunch of idiots. They do not understand that Israel has the USA by the balls and this has been going on since the USS Liberty.

Finally I can stop wondering how the protest voters handle aiding and completing a genocide while claiming to have any sense of morality at all.

They ignore it because they never cared, that's IT! NOTHING ELSE. ITS ALWAYS SOMEONE ELSES FAULT BECAUSE OF THEIR NARCISSISM.

Good thing they got rid of Genocide Joe to pave the way Death dealing Donny

You act like this wasn't a sure thing either way but I get it blaming voters is easy.

And we can all for a second remember the fact Trump basically said they meddled in Pennsylvania, what's the chance the richest people in America if not the world could afford to steal an election.

Coworker: "I hate trump, he should never be president!" Me: "So you're voting Harris?" Coworker: "I don't know if we're ready for a WoMaN president"

Asking for a friend, where is the nearest cliff? He would like to go jump off of it.

Maybe the political party should have conformed to the pressure of the people who vote in its party. Just saying.

Who? People go on about how if we just told Israel to drop dead, voters would turn out in the millions, but what actual numbers are there to back it up? The majority of people willing to left the world burn as protest are young and statistically, they don't vote, the issues be damned.

The simple reality is that this "Silent majority" of far leftists Internet pundits want the Democratic Party to appeal to does not exist. Biden didn't try to appeal to these people, because they were never really going to turn out.

These numbers

https://www.imeupolicyproject.org/postelection-polling

By a more than three-to-one margin, Biden 2020 voters who did not vote for Harris say they would have been more likely to have voted for Harris if she “pledged to break from President Biden's policy toward Gaza by promising to withhold additional weapons to Israel” rather than less likely.

Dems would rather lose than appeal to what americans actually want.

Also funny to imagine protest voters being powerful enough to sway the election but not powerful enough for Dems to listen to

If only they'd put this much effort into getting one person to change her mind on the issue, instead of trying to get 10 million people to change their morals.

It appears especially ghoulish now after it came out that even her campaign's polling showed that it was a losing position.
