Bidens republican immigration bill goes nowhere so he decides to float his own version of a Muslim ban?
A Gallup poll at the end of April found that 27% of Americans view immigration as the most important issue facing the country, topping the economy and inflation.
Piss off your own base to appeal to less than a third of the electorate that isn’t going to vote for you anyway.
I find his base to be largely split on this issue. There’s the bleeding hearts who cry for amnesty (Sky Daddy bless their souls) and the at best ambivalent and at worst lipstick racist others.
The part of the base that this anti-immigration move will anger is the same part of the base that’s already angry about the genocide.
It’s like he’s trying to piss them off specifically and as much as possible.
If the part that’s going to be pissed off is less than what could be won then is the risk worth taking? Some campaign manager must have thought so or this appeal against his own base is a terrible gamble.
Yes I’m sure he’s not just doing this on a whim, but we’ll see how this pays off in November.
If he loses it’s his fault alone.
Nah they’ll blame the people he alienated. They did it for Hillary, they’ll do it for Biden. They block anything remotely progressive and then wonder why progressives don’t run to the polls for them.
I blame Hillary and the people who didn’t vote for her. They still had a choice. And it was a dumbass choice they made.
Edit: If you don’t vote for Biden, and Trump wins, you are culpable. That’s literally how voting works.
No, pretty sure it’s everyone who doesn’t find supporting genocide a big enough deal to seek another path for the election. Everyone supporting Biden now is responsible for propping up a bad candidate.
