Republicans are using a narrative of chaos and āphilosophical divisions on Israelā among Democrats to sink Bidenās campaign
Republicans have identified recent college protests against Israelās war in Gaza as the core of an election campaign narrative of chaos that they hope can be used to sink Joe Bidenās presidency.
The approach was bluntly crystallised by Tom Cotton, the Republican senator Arkansas, in a recent television interview when he mocked the encampments that have sprung up in recent weeks as ālittle Gazasā and lambasted the president for a perceived failure to unequivocally denounce instances of antisemitism.
Yup. Theyāre using the same voter disengagement strategies that Republicans have used for decades. Itās never about how great Trump is. Itās always about how you should just stay home in November because Biden sucks too.
Abstaining from voting will lead to Trumpās second term. Inaction is action.
Edit: The downvotes without rebuttal are proof of this statement.

Perfect. RIP Neil.
And boy do they get butthurt when you point out that there are only two choices that are realistically possible, and not voting or voting third party inherently favors republicans.
Letās not forget that the left abandoning the democrats in the 70s and 80s didnāt make the party move left, they moved right and we got 3rd way dems.
Thatās exactly what we should expect to happen. Inversely, if Democrats maintained control for extended periods of time, all candidates would be forced to adopt more progressive platforms in order to capture more of the vote. Every time liberals and progressives abstain and Republicans take office, the impact is twofold.
Agreed. Itās really sad how many people are unwilling or unable to think about 2nd and 3rd order consequences to actions.
