I’m glad they’re adding support, but I also feel like this is a hard one to sell to the general public.

I could be wrong, but I don’t see a path forward for Biden, and I think the Israel/Palestine conflict is a big part of it. It’s so polarizing among Democrats/leftists.

I don’t think Republicans are as emotionally invested in it - they just don’t want to see too much money sent away.
