He believed he had been doing what was right, despite the political fallout, he told the group, according to the lawmaker.

He didn’t care about losing ground in swing states? He believes in genocide so much that he’s willing to lose to Trump?

Pretty stupid considering that Trump would be even more gung-ho on the genocide.

Never trust the American populace to be anything but moronic. We are brainwashed by right wing fuckery that we can’t fathom anything beyond “I don’t like this, I’ll vote for the other” when the other is worse beyond compare. We don’t care. We don’t understand. We don’t care to understand.

I mean, he has done his level best to alienate independent voters, a pretty large group that he needs to win in order to win reelection. He is trying to split the baby on the Gaza situation and he succeeded in pissing off both the left wing of his base and also a bunch of independents. But make no mistake, if he loses it isn’t going to be just because of some pro-Hamas people in certain areas of Michigan. He is broadly unpopular on a number of issues. He could easily lose by a larger margin than Hillary Clinton did in 2016.

He will be a good candidate when he invades “israel” and liberates Palestine.

Early in the article: “Poll numbers have dropped due to his handling of Israel and Hamas”

Hmm, how could he handle this one? Stop sending weapons and $$$ to Israel?

Later in the article: “Some advisers have told him he should walk faster out of concern that his gait feeds impressions that he’s too old”

Does he have the authority to stop congressionally approved aid? I thought Trump got impeached for that.

He’s circumvented the rules to channel millitary aid to Israel. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/mar/06/israel-weapons-sales-loophole
