The left needs to challenge Biden, especially on US involvement in Gaza. But to do that, we need to keep him in office.

    Where have I said we shouldn’t demand more from Biden and the Democrats? I would argue the opposite. Biden didn’t get my vote in the primary. My claim is that voting against the Democrats in the general election does not get you more from the Democrats, it enables the party trying to make our lives significantly worse.

    You can criticize the party while still voting for them when the alternative is a party bent on ending democracy. You can also primary all the candidates that don’t represent your values. I would encourage it. I don’t understand why it’s so difficult to acknowledge Democrats both need to improve the party AND win every election against every GOP candidate possible.
