Disgruntled progressive activists and organizations have embarked on a campaign to push voters to mark themselves “uncommitted” in protest of Biden’s stance on the Israel-Hamas War.

With 95% of the expected vote tabulated, 70.5% of voters backed Biden while 19.0% went uncommitted, according to a tabulation by The Associated Press.

In Minnesota, more than 45,000 marked themselves “uncommitted” — a number greater than the margin by which Hillary Clinton defeated Donald Trump in the state in 2016.

    “But trump” is valid, though.

    He has proven to be more than willing to suck up to any global leader that he thinks is strong and powerful.

    And has already given Netanyahu concessions in the past.

      Didn’t Hilary basically run on “But Trump”? If we don’t learn from history something something something….

      That’s really cool. Maybe Biden can make it a bit more appealing for people by not sending israel weapons while they are openly stating they want to annex 3000 more homes in the West Bank. Instead of “Genocide vs more Genocide” how about “Not Genocide vs Genocide”?
