“The shitshow that is supporting Israel during its accelerating genocide, I won’t defend all that much. But the overall attempt to paint him as the same as the average Democrat is dead wrong.”

It could have said, “We appreciate your opinion, but this is too important and necessary right now. So we’re going to cancel all the Federally held student debt, instead of a portion of it.”

    But didn’t.
