You've got to at least try to appeal your base. And no, "vote for me or you'll get the other guy" is not an inspiring rally cry. It didn't work in 2016 and the fact that the message seems to be similar in 2024 has me really worried.
Would be pretty cool if like, I dunno, the primaries actually worked and could vote in another candidate instead of running with literally one of the least popular first term presidents in American history.
He's also completely losing the left by refusing to call for a ceasefire in Gaza. He's made it abundantly clear he doesn't give a shit if Israel is committing crimes against humanity or not. Not much of a compelling "lesser evil" to the people who actually give a shit. Not that I'm saying Trump wouldn't, you know, turn America directly into a totalitarian dictatorship and immediately prompt a civil war or anything. Just that Biden himself is a terrible person and inspires very little hope in any kind of moderate establishment that could reasonably fight back against fascism. There's no doubt leftists will vote against Trump, but there's no enthusiasm from the left with regards to Biden's campaign.
Trump would surely solve the Palestinian crisis with the one state solution. It'll be a great solution folks. The best solution of all solutions. Some may even call it the final solution. Biblical.
Yes you're right we shouldn't have standards for our heads of state and just anyone is fine for the job, even if that person provides financial and military support to a state that is not subtly committing crimes against humanity.
You'll note the end where I said that leftists will still vote against Trump. Dunno who you're preaching to about voting.
