    Biden’s approval rating for his handling of the situation in the Middle East, at 27%, is his lowest among five issues tested in the survey. This is because far fewer Democrats (47%) approve of how he is handling the situation between the Israelis and Palestinians than approve of his handling of the economy, the environment, energy policy and foreign affairs, broadly. On those issues, no less than 66% of Democrats approve of Biden.

    Only further contributing to Biden’s low rating on the Middle East situation, just 21% of independents and 16% of Republicans approve of his performance on the issue.

    Wasn’t there something about Americans and not getting representation? I recall that being a big deal at some point in America…

    The DNC could have a slam dunk victory if only they’d run a candidate who wasn’t pro-genocide

    But all the party leaders take AIPAC money, they’d rather trump be president than a Dem who refuses to fund a genocide.

    Don’t blame voters for having standards, blame the DNC for caring more about how Israel can afford their genocide than preventing trump from getting a second term.
