Uhh he literally said he would boycott and refuse any request to talk by the White House live on CNN.

But also, why would they reach out to the mayor of Dearborn when visiting Saginaw? Seems like manufactured drama

When 20% of voters in some states are rebelling in your primary, you can either stop and act like you give a shit, or find out they just might not give a shit when you need their votes in November.

These poor guys have no choice. Whether it's Trump or Biden. It's just the fucking hypocracy and double standards of US how they always supported the worst oppressive dictatorships, monarchies and genocidal aparthied regimes in the middleeast while pretending to stand for democracy and human rights around the world. Only Yemen does not bow down to the US while rest of the the governments of Arab countries: Eypgt, Jordan, UAE, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia even sided with Israel agaisnt their own. The war on Gaza stripped those all leaders naked.
Eygpt blocked aid coming to Palestine, Jordan shut down their citizens and borders, Bahrain literally particpated with their military bases to counter Yemen's shipment blockade, and Saudi Arabia and UAE continued all their oil trade at the cheapest prices to the US and Israel, shot down drones and missiles coming from Yemen toward Israel, provided their logestic support and also opened new air ways to Israel to deliver all needed weapons and imports which could not get through Yemen's gulf sea.

Just remember this the next time you wonder why the US loves to spread and lubricate their ass cheeks with cheap oil from oppressive dictatorship monarchies while pretending to play good guy world police on human rights and democracy. Thank you again Gaza and those 30000+ dead, and 50000+ crippled for life for stripping and exposing these governments for what they are.

We do have a choice, and Biden is going to find that out in November if he doesn't change course. Cornel West and Jill Stein look better and better every day.
