“That son of a bitch, Bibi Netanyahu, he’s a bad guy,” said Biden privately, according to Woodward. “He’s a bad fucking guy!”

Reads like a bloody Onion article.

His VP can come out and voice her disagreement with his actions, distancing herself from him and those actions.

It's the simplest solution by far.

Not doing so and instead having the party loyalists go around raging at any who criticize Biden's complicity in Genocide, is not the simplest solution.

And yet here we are, with the tribalists piling up on any criticism online instead of Kamala Harris simply voicing her disagreement with Biden's policies.

One wonders why exactly the chosen option is not the simplest and most likely to lead to a Trump defeat.

Lol. All this is performance anyway. If Harris voiced her disagreement with Biden, the right wing media would have a field day with how disorganized the Dems are and how they can't be trusted to lead.

Living in fear of right wing bullying is not productive. We can either cower or we can kick them in the face or ridicule them when they go low. The dems do far too much cowering the past few decades. Americans love a good snappy comeback, and so far all we have doing it is old coach Waltz.
