It's not Biden's fault. He just assumed "East Palestine railroad incident" was just another IDF bombing and didn't think he needed to address that since he usually doesn't
I just checked and it's been a red state these past two elections, so they probably didn't respond because it isn't part of the critical states needed to win until it became a huge press crisis. I think Trump will bring this up on the debates regardless.
If we're being a cold and calculating Democrat strategist: Ohio was already solidly pro-Trump even before this (He won there in both 2016 and 2020 by comfortable margins), so odds are Biden and the Dems aren't really "losing" anything from this exchange.
If we're being real: This is gonna be long-forgotten by most come November 2024, and the people who do aren't going to be enough to sway the election one way or the other. Odds are if they voted red before they'll still vote red, and if they voted blue before they'll still vote blue, but most of all: If they didn't vote at all, this probably isn't going to push them to.
yeah probably nobody who would benefit from bringing this event up in a year will bring it up for easy political capital or to hit back on some convoluted lib narrative. I mean, we all know material assistance doesn't drive political projects. yes, we can safely say this latest own-goal by the Dems will not come back to haunt them the way any of the others have.
I really don't think this is gonna be what wins Trump the election over Biden. Odds are the last month or so before Election Day is going to be what decides it. If the economy's still doing okay enough for enough people, he'll likely win again imo.
Hell, even if it isn't that might not be enough to take Joe down: Everyone was expecting the Dems to get creamed in the midterms due to inflation, but after all was said and done they still had the senate and only lost the House by single digits.
Only chud channels but this will be in favor for Trump as he can pull this and so many other cards against republican contenders during the eventual debates. Looking forward to Trump asking Desantis "where were you when East Palestine cried out for aide?". Right now feels like a solid bet that Trump is getting the GOP nomination cuss of this stunt.
Easiest political move of all time and Biden and Boot Edge Edge missed it after 2 weeks.

If they acknowledge it, they might be forced to do something. Can't have that!
yes but nobody will remember this in november 2024
People in Ohio will.

By a solid margin too (8% in 2020), so the dems probably consider it a lost cause at the moment

yeah, no one outside of Ohio knows about any of this happening.
They might as well not tbh.

but realistically speaking, this single blunder won't be particularly meaningful in the long list of own-goals they'll score in the next 2 years
