Idk how anyone, even a Biden supporter, could watch this and not pick up them switching, without missing a beat, from "We're not going to follow poll numbers" to word salad starting with "We're going to follow the American people". They're almost as most as bad at PR as the Israelis. Laughable

the unspoken part of that is that "the american people" to them are just the military industrial complex and zionist settlers, the rest of us are just rabble

There's also corporate persons, the most important persons there are.

You could even point to people "doing it right," a deeply and profoundly flawed assumption, in a rich, white suburb with children and some white collar job. Even selecting among them those who are Democrats. I wonder how many of them aren't down for Palestinian genocide because it's disgusting or even just because it's expensive. Even if that is the American people to you and you only imagine yourself in a town hall in a country club with them, they'd still be looking at you sideways I bet. The American People (tm) has to be a set of 200 litetal uncanny valley ghouls

Yeah it's something like 80% of Democrats that want a ceasefire. That includes a ton of wealthy, class-disconnected people who just see no justification for wholesale slaughter
