[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not going to read 11 pages of posts on this, but find it bizarre that anyone would think this Israel situation is somehow a big win for Republicans.[/quote]

The protesting in DC right now is not helping Biden or the Democrats.[/quote]

They are protesting Biden you twit[/quote]

NP. Right. But the issue is that swing state moderates and independents had already been on the fence about Biden but his pro-Israel stance had been making them lean back towards the Democrats. In other words one of the issues in this upcoming election was that moderates and independents hate Trump, but actively also hate the progressive wing of the Democratic Party. So, for swing state moderates, many are deciding whether the election is actually Trump versus Biden or MAGA vs progressive left. Or Trump v progressive left or Biden v. MAGA. In other words, for critical voters in swing states, a strong point in Biden’s favor is his ability to repudiate and restrain the progressive left.

These marches, with their violence and graffiti and antisemitism, show that Biden can’t restrain the progressive left. Plus they show the progressive left aligned with values that repel moderate voters: support for terrorism, attempts to overrun the White House, etc.

The marches will draw important voters to Republicans, make no mistake. For moderates who were horrified by J6, there are now images of masked far leftists trying to get into the White House while carrying the flag of a terrorist-supporting foreign country. For moderates worried about terrorism, there are now images and videos that look like thousands of people protesting in favor of terrorism on American streets.

And yes of course I know that most protestors just want peace blah blah blah. Do you think effective campaign ads show any of that? Do you think the intent matters whatsoever in campaign politics? There are now going to be pictures and videos of masked far leftists trying to scale the White House fence with flags of a foreign country flooding moderate voters from now until the next presidential election. Essentially the far left has handed the Republicans a neat way of removing J6 as a campaign tool for Democrats and that’s a powerful victory for Republicans. [/quote]

I expect Israel to be completely irrelevant to the voting decisions of the vast majority of voters.  It's completely bizarre you think that Bide's "pro-Israel stance" was making swing state voters lean towards him. [/quote]

Agree.  Foreign policy is rarely much of an issue for voters.  And we’re not sending U.S. troops.

I expect the 50,000 voters in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Arizona, North Carolina, Georgia who will decide the next election are paying little attention to “events in the Middle East”.  [/quote]

You’re forgetting Michigan which has enough Muslim voters to swing the election. Biden is doing a great job convincing them to stay home[/quote]

And you're forgetting that PA and AZ have enough Jewish voters to swing the election.

As for Dearborn, I don't understand the complaints.  Biden has done more for Palestinians than any president since Bush the First.  And as for the Jewish complainers, none of his criticisms of Israel have been remotely controversial.

Biden's done a great job on this so far.  The Israelis and Palestinians aren't cooperating but that's par for the course.  At least he seems to understand the complex interconnected nature of this cluster.[/quote]

He seems to understand the complex nature? Yes killing 4000 children in the name of finding one Hamas terrorist is so complex LOL. Biden is done. People are calling him Genocide Joe and rightly so! The Arabs and the African Americans are not going to show up for him and almost all Zionists vote Republican now.[/quote]
