    Sure, but how many people are casting uncommitted or seeing how unpopular Biden is and are going to stay home in November because of it? My guess is not zero.

    I get the protest and the timing, but it’s unclear if it’s really inoffensive in the general.

      You don’t get the protest then!

      If Biden fears this uncommitted vote movement then he will have to do something to stop it in its tracks.

      Using his power to stop the weapons and money transfers to Israel and using the words Ceasefire Now would be a start. If he starts doing concrete actions to stop ten year old children wasting away and dying of starvation then the uncommitted vote movement would be over.

      Then it sounds like Biden needs to take a firm anti-genocide stance to get those voters to actually vote, no? Do you think the number of Biden voters would decrease if Biden stopped the genocide?

        I think the number of voters in general will decrease if Trump wins, considering he wants to get rid of elections entirely.

          Do you disagree with the statement that Biden taking an anti-genocide stance, rather than his current pro-genocide with wrist slaps stance, would increase voter turnout?
