Those don’t sound like defensive munitions.

President condemns illegal activity and antisemitism, supports protests. I’d be surprised by anything else.

I think he meant to stay on point. As in, don’t fall into antisemitism when you’re protesting Israel. Since that’s what he mentioned just before.

Only if they don’t sell.

No it’s not. Stop making excuses.

He’s fucked up with Gaza. It’s the one thing I think he has absolutely failed on. But I don’t think the politics are that straightforward with it. Demanding a total ceasefire probably isn’t good politics. And they wouldn’t stop anyways.

Demanding a stoppage to the genocide is definitely good politics. But Biden has been a behind the scenes president which works better for influencing Republicans who will dig their heels in if called out. But it has failed here and he needs to acknowledge that. They haven’t listened to anything from him since the hostage release.

Both sides of voters were already screaming at Biden.

If you think Republicans got everything they wanted, you’re really not paying attention to what they want.

There’s more issues than just razor wire. But feel free to ignore that and let Trump make this much worse.

A lot of natural disasters drove people out of their own countries too. And they’re only becoming more frequent.

Either you don’t pay attention to the news or you’re a plant trying to make Democrats stay home. Have fun with your wall. Enjoy watching kids get ripped away from their parents. Enjoy watching kids who only know English get deported to a country they don’t understand. Enjoy watching people drown in the ocean. That’s what you’re advocating for. If you think it’s bad now, it’s going to be so much worse if Trump gets elected. The president can’t always force it one way or another. But they can help or hinder these actions.

They don’t do what the GOP wants. But they do have to respond to the narrative in some way. Otherwise the people will elect the GOP who will make things MUCH, MUCH worse.

Same way that the GOP is now freaking out about IVF. Suddenly their anti-choice policies look so much worse. And if they don’t do something, more Democrats will be elected and we will enact more pro-choice legislation.

Did you just discover narratives? I can’t really telling because you said “GOP is reflecting” which isn’t really true and not what I said. But maybe that’s what you meant?

Biden has to respond to the narrative. The narrative is there because of the GOP. They’re setting it.

Democrats do the same. But they’re usually not as good at it since they are expected to be truthful.

(eg GOP lies about immigrants being evil. DNC gives warnings about abortion that come true.)

Go back and look at the '90s. Conservative Democrats are practically progressives by comparison.

Dude is the definition of speak softly and carry a big stick. He’s fucking smart. He’s done this type of stuff all term. It’s how he kept us from going into default.

Just because you dislike both, doesn’t mean they’re the same.

If Trump gets elected, he’s going to be reinstalling those deadly traps Texas put up. He’s going to shut down all the crossings he can. Closed border. He’s going to steal migrant children again. He’s going to come after DACA kids.

They are not the same.

Biden HAS TO listen to the American people. And the American people are demanding that he do something. If he doesn’t, they will put in someone who does.

Sure the GOP has forced the issue into people’s heads. But Biden HAS TO face that reality.

The GOP as a whole is actively antagonistic with America. But you have to work with them if you want to get anything done.
