You have no actual evidence of that though. Democrats can't win a national election with just California, Oregon, Washington, and New York. I wish they could. But they can't. And the sentiment outside those areas was largely that we need to give Israel all the aid they need. That's just a simple unfortunate fact.

Claiming that Palestinian genocide was what dropped the voting numbers from the peak of the Biden election, back to NORMAL numbers. Is just kind of silly on his face. Because the numbers went back to normal. And for people in a country built on local genocide of my ancestors and many others. To be so significantly concerned about a genocide happening to the people they largely have no connection to on the other side of the planet simply doesn't make any logical sense. It's much more likely that Americans are just lazy and heavily politically indoctrinated/ignorant.

It's like hearing all my fellow tone deaf lefties saying the Democratic Party only loses because they don't cater to us. And yet when I ask if we are so powerful that the Democrats need our permission. Why do we even bother with a democrats. Why don't we just have our own party and win. Or take over the Democratic party. The obvious answer being, that we are a largely detached, hyper online, easily ignorable minority. But so many egotistically, selfishly just want to push the blame on anyone else. Just like the magoos.
