    Unpopular donors are very inefficient and could easily spend x10 their opponent to eke out a win in a primary. Also, donors like to be bipartisan. Meaning they never openly spend on just 1 party in November because they want a good relationship with both parties.

    The DNC wants to help Israel without any consequences, so they are pretending to be powerless here. But for arguments sake, if AIPAC tried to hurt the DNCs chances in November over a growing antiwar movement. They would permanently damage Israel’s reputation with liberal democracies across the globe because Trump is an unpopular guy.

      Except Israel isn’t unpopular with most voters, unfortunately, especially in contested states and districts.

        I don’t know how to reply here. You ignored so much of my comment, I’d believe you if you said your reply was meant for another.
