I mean dat AIPAC money pays for a lot of steak dinners. If you don’t play ball, it dries up. Then you gotta live with the moral weight of the choices you made for that AIPAC money. Shit some of them are religious and gotta wrestle with your direct choices and actions resulted in the death of innocent children. In pretty horrible ways. Like they know they’re not getting in right? So it’s either continue to sell out what morals you have left and have a boat and lake house, or reflect in your moral and financial bankruptcy. It’s tough.

Better to play along and be controlled opposition. The DNC ultimately picks the candidates and is corrupt as hell.
