The Abandon Biden Campaign announced last week that it will continue to oppose President Joe Biden into November. The campaign was influential in rallying support for the uncommitted option during the Democratic primary season.
In a press release last Thursday, the campaign reiterated its commitment to oppose Biden in the general election, criticizing his support of Israeli actions in Gaza and condemning his policies as “diplomacy theater.” They specifically highlighted Biden’s failure to enforce meaningful “redlines,” which they argue enables ongoing violence. A full copy of the press release is available here.
“We will not stand by,” the organization stated. “We are mobilized, we are furious, and we are committed to ensuring Joe Biden is defeated in the general election. The time for accountability is now.”
Notably, the campaign does not clarify how it intends for its supporters to oppose Biden in the general election, nor does it mention any specific alternative candidates.
The Abandon Biden Campaign was initially launched in response to President Biden’s refusal to call for a ceasefire in Gaza by the end of October 2023. That November, the campaign rallied to oppose Biden’s 2024 reelection bid, urging supporters to unify behind the uncommitted option in the Democratic primary where available to hold Biden accountable. According to the Green Papers, various unpledged, uncommitted, and other intentional efforts to blank the ballot against Biden have garnered enough total support to earn over half a million votes and 31 delegates at the Democratic National Convention.
The campaign has also held virtual town halls featuring presidential candidates sympathetic to its cause, including Green candidate Jill Stein, Party for Socialism and Liberation nominee Claudia De La Cruz, and independent Cornel West.
We need Biden on the ticket. Need to know why?
Trouble in Wonderland........................
Bunch of aholes complaining Joe is not a big enough ahole.
the campaign
how about a name or two?
I am all for encouraging the abandon Biden folks to vote for 33% each of Green candidate Jill Stein, Party for Socialism and Liberation nominee Claudia De La Cruz, and independent Cornel West.
It would go a long way to ensuring Trump gets a plurality of each state’s votes.
