What are they thinking? [View all]

I get the frustration with the situation in Gaza but...

One woman interviewed on TV flat out said that Biden lost her vote.

When asked about thus helping a trump victory, her answer is, it would be a "short term loss."

I am so tired of Joe Biden needing to walk this political tightrope while apparently losing support while the orange malignancy can say what ever he wants including the deportation of Muslims and receive relatively little repercussions.
