“The American people are not with you on this,” Democrat Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) said Friday, threatening fellow Democrat President Joe Biden with loss of support, if he doesn’t demand a ceasefire in Israel’s response to the terrorist attack it suffered at the hands of Hamas on October 7.
“@POTUS, the majority of the American people are not with you on this one. #CeasefireNow,” the Muslim congresswoman claims in a social media post introducing a video, in which she attacks Biden for supporting Israel’s effort to wipe out Hamas in Gaza.
The video opens with Biden saying, “We stand with Israel.” Later, it shows Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu saying, “I want to thank President Biden for his unequivocal support.”
The video features scenes of pro-Palestine protesters flood the streets and shouting slogans like “From the river to the sea!”
Graphics sent Biden a stern warning, regarding his bid for reelection in 2024:
“JOE BIDEN SUPPORTED THE GENOCIDE OF THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WON’T FORGET. BIDEN, SUPPORT A CEASEFIRE NOW OR DON’T COUNT ON US IN 2024.”
“We will remember in 2024,” Rep. Tlaib promises, in conclusion.

As it turns out, it appears that more Americans support Israel than Palestine in the war (though, not more Democrats, apparently). They are displeased with Biden's handling the situation, however.
