how does this help anyone’s election chances

It doesn't help. It hurts Biden among younger voters. Because he gets the blame for this.

So why are Democrats doing this? This isn't just a Republican thing, it's bipartisan and Biden signed it. Why?

So why are Democrats doing this?

For all the other reasons already listed?

[-] queermunist@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 months ago

But only for those other reasons and definitely not because of TikTok being a hotbed of pro-Palestine/anti-Isrsel media content. Can't be that, right? It's just a coincidence. 🙄
