He knows he can do whatever he wants because liberals will vote for him anyway. Theyve cornered their supporters into a corner gave them a boogeyman and they will be rewarded, again, for shitty politics thats getting people killed
I could kill and starve thousands of brown people in the ME and not lose a single vote
The Boogeyman already proved his worth as a Boogeyman, but you’re either too dumb or too privileged to understand
You act like the President makes international support decisions based on his opinions or constituency. POTUS has always leaned most heavily on the advisement of the State Department when making decisions like these. Not news, citizens, the UN, the ICC, or the ICJ, but state intelligence. Blinken needs to get back to work providing a more thorough and conclusive report so Biden has something to justify a change in a preexisting commitment of support, and Biden should be pressuring him to do so.
If he takes their advice he is complicit in the outcome. He alone has final say.
I’m not deferring responsibility, only explaining how the presidency works regarding intelligence of international affairs. You don’t have to like the truth, but I suggest you make yourself aware of it.
The only truth here is the final decision comes from the top. And the top is the one responsible.
Again, I agree he’s the one responsible. My comment was meant challenge your suggestion that he’s making international relations decisions based on polls or likelihood of reelection, not tell you where to point your finger. Carry on with your judgement all you’d like.
There is absolutely no pressure on Biden to stop aiding genociders, just empty words. Nothing is going to happen to Biden if he doesn’t change course, there are no consequences. There is more pressure on Biden to sanction the ICC with the maga republicans because those comments are coming from Netenyahu and he can actully evoke material consequences by fucking with the AIPAC funding.
There’s no pressure. That has been clear from the jump. But especially when police cracked down on peaceful protesters on campuses.
