      It’s wild to think he’s willing to potentially lose to a literal felon just to protect a genocidal right-wing zealot.

      It would be the most final indictment of neoliberalism one could imagine.

        i think he’s betting on the pro-isreal-no-matter-what people who vote more reliably for the establishment than the left-leaning young who usually don’t vote for the establishment.

        the later is a is chicken and egg problem because there’s not much reason for a progressive to vote for a centrist, so the centrist doesn’t try to reach out to the progressives; cementing a lack of votes from progressives for a centrist.
