A new set of Times/Siena polls, including one with The Philadelphia Inquirer, reveal an erosion of support for the president among young and nonwhite voters upset about the economy and Gaza.
I think there’s plenty he could be doing, but the common thread would be “making the case.” What he can accomplish and what he can fight for are different categories, and the fights he loses with the House can be the talking points downticket challengers use to unseat members of the House.
What he finally started kind of halfway doing and not sending the weapons and ammo.
The only things I have wanted since the beginning were: only send defensive munitions( Iron dome missiles) and get more aid in there.
If he would have clearly announced to the world his intentions to put one American soldier per aid truck and driven right through, either they wouldn’t have done shit, and the aid would have got through, or they would’ve pulled a USS liberty combined with a WCK and proved they weren’t our allies.
Either way, this war would be different.
Either we would have safe civilians.
The main thing I wanted from Israel was them to protect the civilians.
I said a long time ago that they could have done exactly what they are doing now, except the tents would have been maybe a kilometer into Israel.
It could have had fences and dead lines around it.
They could have setup a whole are with an, easy, efficient, and safe living area with food, bathing, electricity, medical stations and open live-streamed cameras everywhere.
The us would have fucking paid for those and then Israel could slowly let people in while vetting them carefully.
Would there still have been people that called them concentration camps? Oh fuck yeah, but they would have been easily countered by the livestreams.
Would some hummus members slip in? Yes, but there is only so much they could do in an area where they were searched with body scanners before they allowed in and that cameras are covering every square inch of.
It would have accomplished more, while gaining the Israelis international repute instead of the opposite.
Care to elaborate on what Biden can realistically do with the current congressional breakdown?

Only if the media covers it, and if the Tiktok generation pays attention. Which it’s not, and they’re not.
