Yeah, because Trump has a chance of winning in Illinois. The media is such bullshit. They need it to be a close race so people keep reading. Just get out and vote and ignore these click bait headlines.
Chicagoans can permanently register to vote by mail! Just fill out a form and the city will send you a ballot before every election! There’s no reason to accidentally not vote anymore.
So … Bernie Sanders? In which case, it’s an indication that Biden needs to be courting the progressive vote (which was always obvious and probably why Hillary’s approach of shitting on them got Trump elected).
He won 9 states including California. Early on he was outperforming Biden before all the other candidates dropped out and endorsed Biden, not long after that he dropped. So not sure which states he was on the ballot for.
Looks like supporting genocide may overshadow all of the impressive things Biden has accomplished. He needs to take a stand against genocide instead of funding it. Then we will have a chance at holding on to democracy for a few more years.
So, what can he do to win more votes than a fascist? If the fascist wins, I am definitely not going to stick around on this planet for that again. I’m pretty sure I’m not alone in that sentiment.
There’s this pathological inability on the part of certain Democrats to imagine that people might be opposed to the genocide that Biden should not be supporting.
Uh... No. The genocide matters a lot. Maybe not to all the population, but to certain segments (mainly Muslims and young progressives) who are key for Biden's reelection. "People in real life" depends a lot on who you interact with, but the fact that there is a large number of potential voters who will sit out the election because of Gaza is undeniable.
Edit: Also Israel had tight control over Western public opinion so they've managed to avoid scrutiny for a long time, but there's a decent amount of historical precedent for American people being very not okay with genocide (other than their own, anyway) and that affecting the country's foreign policy.
