Cut off the genocidal Israel and put forth a candidate that won’t be the oldest in history. It’s crazy these things even have to be asked for
Its too late to ask for it now. We had 3 years to tell him he was a one term president.
This all feels like sowing division and apathy to try to get a more favorable matchup for Trump
Its too late to ask for it now. We had 3 years to tell him he was a one term president.
He was asked by many before he even took office to commit to not running for re-election. Some supporters even tried to assuage apprehension about his age by claiming incorrectly that he had already committed to it. It’s never time to challenge the establishment, according to the establishment and its supporters.
This all feels like sowing division and apathy to try to get a more favorable matchup for Trump
And there we have the old false dichotomy; pretending that nobody criticizes Biden except to help Trump.
The “favorable matchup” one looks new, though. As if there somehow IS anyone worse who’d be willing and allowed to run were he to step aside and retire!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
In a statement shared first with NBC News after its executive board voted on the endorsement Wednesday night, the Washington union called Biden “an ally to workers over the last four years,” but suggested it is not confident in his ability to defeat likely GOP nominee Donald Trump in November.
“Currently, many voters, and UFCW 3000 executive board, feel that the best path to have the best nominee, and to defeat Trump, is to vote ‘uncommitted,’” the union said in the statement.
But the move by a liberal state’s largest labor union shows some parts of the Democratic base are still not fully on board with the president’s re-election yet.
This week in Michigan, home to a large Muslim and Arab community concerned about the war in Gaza, about 13% of Democratic primary voters chose “uncommitted” over Biden.
The Washington union praised those who voted “uncommitted” in Michigan and said “Biden must push for a lasting ceasefire and ending US funding toward this reckless war.”
Meanwhile, The Stranger, a prominent alt-weekly publication based in Seattle, also endorsed the idea of voting “uncommitted,” expressing disappointment in the options of Trump and Biden, whom it referred to as the “two genocidal geriatrics leading the polls.”
