The Uncommitted movement made modest demands on the Democratic Party toward ending the agony in Gaza, and the party rejected them. But their demands cannot be ignored by Democratic power brokers forever.
I will always advocate to demand more from our representatives. Especially when it comes to ending military support for a genocide. Yeah, the Democratic party can take that risk, but it’s a bad move. It’s a bad move on moral grounds, it’s a bad move on political grounds. Especially if they want to win, that’s not a constituency to ignore and risk losing those votes in key states.
