Republicans are using a narrative of chaos and ‘philosophical divisions on Israel’ among Democrats to sink Biden’s campaign
Republicans have identified recent college protests against Israel’s war in Gaza as the core of an election campaign narrative of chaos that they hope can be used to sink Joe Biden’s presidency.
The approach was bluntly crystallised by Tom Cotton, the Republican senator Arkansas, in a recent television interview when he mocked the encampments that have sprung up in recent weeks as “little Gazas” and lambasted the president for a perceived failure to unequivocally denounce instances of antisemitism.

That would be every point since the party went all in on neoliberalism in 1992. The leadership and its lickspittles are still convinced that the policy stances, strategies and tactics that worked back then (including acting like the increasingly rare “independent centrist” is 100% of persuadable voters) are perfect, so everyone who disagrees in either direction must be wrong with malicious intent.
This is exactly right… They keep chasing an ever shrinking “center”, moving further and further to the right to try and scrape a few soft Rs over to their side, while ignoring basically the majority of the next 2 generations (progressives)… Or worse, spitting in our faces and telling us to shut up and take it. If they’d just embrace progressives they’d still get all those centrist liberal votes (those are the people telling us to vote blue no matter who after all) AND they’d get most of the next generations… The Republican party would be gone in 3 generations… But of course they’d have to give up their cushy retirement gigs giving speeches to their corporate sugar daddies
