Their best bet is to get behind her and work the issue from the inside and hopefully with the winner. I know my analysis is purely a political one, and asking a major concession from someone.

This is one of the differences between the two parties. Republicans are slewing to the right to their most extreme elements. They accuse the dems of being too progressive and beholden to their extremists when the evidence is pretty clear they don’t do that.
Except one party has clearly been in charge while Israel has carried out the most aggressive military campaign in many, many years resulting in what many on the left are calling genocide, and you're sitting here saying 'well the GOP would be worse.'

So there is worse than genocide?

You're twisting yourself up trying to explain this.

If you believe that what is happening in Gaza is genocide, admit that the Democrats have been 100% complicit in committing genocide with Israel, specifically VP Harris as President of the Senate, who happened to authorize sending Israel the weapons and resources to help Israel commit the genocide.

I mean it either is or isn't genocide, and if it is, surely the Democrats as the party in charge are guilty of supporting it, no?

So if you support the Democrats you support genocide.

That is what the protesters are protesting about. Are they wrong?

Assuming they are not paid agents of Iran.
