A ceasefire is stopping israel's Genocide.
Israel is committing Genocide that is a fact.
A ceasefire would stop it that is a fact.
Biden is losing voters because he is not using the word Genocide and supporting israel. You are turning the world around.
Facts don't vote.
But you know what else is a fact? The poll numbers I linked.
You said "if Biden stops funding Israel's genocide", NOT "if Biden negotiates a ceasefire".
If Biden takes a hard line against Israel, he will lose votes.
Which votes? Can you back up your claim?
I already linked the polling data.
Where the AP article?
Yep.
What in there proved your point can you quote it like I do for my articles?
You can't read?
This is obvious sealioning but I'll indulge you this one time.
So 62% of Democrats say they have gone too far and not forcing a ceasefire would cost Biden votes?
How does this work
You never said the word ceasefire until you were forced to move the goalpost. Stick to your original statement.
Stop the Genocide. With a ceasefire. How else?
You specifically said
So I'm guessing you think cutting off funding is "how else".
I linked evidence that 80% of Democrats are in favor of a ceasefire.
You are saying Biden would lose votes by enforcing a ceasefire. I am saying Biden would gain votes by enforcing a ceasefire.
Quit talking about ceasefire. That was not your original point. Unless you admit you were wrong about your original point.
You're really trying to win on semantics now that you've been proven wrong with stats.
You said "stop funding Israel" is what Biden should do. I want you to defend that.
You said "stop funding israel would cost Biden votes". I want you to defend that. You clearly did not do that whatsoever as even your own stats show voters don't support israel's Genocide.
If 40% of Democrats don't even see a problem with what Israel is doing...
And independents are 50/50.
