Everyone with 2 brain cells to rub together knows not voting D in the general gives the election to the Cult45 crowd who’ll fuck over the Palestinians way more.

That’s the leverage. If Biden thinks that Trump is that bad, surely the rational choice from his side is to give in to some of the demands made by the uncommitted voter movement on Palestine to earn their votes. Like a ceasefire. One phone call to Israel and Netanyahu is all it would take. Ceasefire now, otherwise no more US support. Even Reagan, the farther of modern right wing US politics, did that in the past. Instead, Biden has chosen to continue arming the genocidal Israeli state. And large parts of uncommitted movement are unprepared to put any political pressure on Biden.

However the truth is that this is all political theatre, Biden doesn’t actually think that Trump or the Republicans are an existential threat, which can be seen by his lack of urgency to address anything with regards to the moves Republicans are making. The USA is an effective one party state, with two factions.
