During negotiations with the DNC and the Harris campaign, we were repeatedly told by interlocutors that Harris couldn’t meet any of our basic requests (a policy shift from Biden, a Palestinian speaker at the DNC, a statement distinguishing herself from Trump on Israel, or even a meeting with Michigan families who lost loved ones to Israeli bombs) because of AIPAC-aligned politicians like Fetterman, who might take to TV, rile up suburban white and Jewish voters, and fracture the party’s coalition in a swing state.
That political calculus alienated a key voting bloc, although likely not large enough to have shifted the ultimate election outcomes, that should be part of a durable Democratic majority. But few will ever be held accountable for that choice.
A Fetterman staffer condemning Uncommitted for not advocating for Palestinians 'the right way' is like an arsonist scolding the fire department for using the wrong hose.
Oh, so by your own admittion you had no idea what the facts on the ground were, but you went ahead and declared that it was "worse by far" based purely on the fact that it's now someone you don't like doing it.
You're strawmanning so hard. "The news I read doesn't say that." Is the context you're missing.
Of course I'm not an expert and neither are you. What's your credentials? You're a war reporter currently in Gaza internet trolling rather than writing an article? Of course not.
Get the fuck outta here with your holier than thou shit. You're so sure that I'm wrong and that Trump is somehow helping stop a genocide? When he called for America to take over the Gaza strip and remove all Palestinians? You really think Harris would have done that?
It doesn't matter if he's an idiot and everyone knows he won't do it.. Unless he does. He's still escalating the crisis.
What are your plans for the next election? If both democrats and republicans are equally bad then who will you try to elect instead? You only have 4 years to plan this out and come up with a viable candidate, so if you're not yet working on this I urge you to figure it out.
🤦
the biden administration was literally arguing against a 2 state solution at the un and breaking its own rules to arm a genocide; their goal and trump's goal are one in the same, they only differ in execution.
lol you still think there's going to be elections
You're going to need to do something else.
