Do you not understand what a primary is?

I do.

The better question is this: How does trying to make Biden lose the primary in Michigan help the people in Gaza?

It's a pressure campaign. It shows that the voting block is large enough to matter in November.

This is an extremely short sighted approach to elections.

The time to primary Biden was last year.

Nobody is actually making a primary run against him. They're using the primary vote in a state heavily connected to Gaza to show Biden there can be consequences in November if he doesn't change course.

And no they aren't going to vote for Trump. They'd likely not vote at all. And yes they know what that means but on the scale of genocide vs genocide it's not like it can get worse for them.

Anybody who thinks in any situation “it can’t get worse” has absolutely no concept of history.

Once things get bad enough people stop thinking logically.
