Young people turn on ‘Genocide Joe’ over his cease-fire stance: 'He absolutely sucks'

Young Democratic Party voters are reportedly reconsidering supporting President Biden’s re-election in 2024 thanks to his commitment to support Israel’s war effort against Hamas.

The Washington Post recently spoke to several University of Michigan voters who claimed they might support a candidate other than Biden due to the issue, with one voter telling the outlet that she and her friends now refer to the world leader as "Genocide Joe" because of his support for Israel. 

One voter the Post spoke to was Bhavani Iyer, a senior at the school who supports abortion access, but is now conflicted over the idea of voting for Biden in 2024. 

The Post reported: "… she said she doesn’t know if she will support President Biden’s reelection bid next November. One of her top priorities is protecting access to abortion, but her disapproval of Biden’s handling of the Israel-Gaza war and his decision not to call for a full cease-fire weighs just as heavily on her mind these days."

"In past elections, I voted a straight ticket. But in this one, I feel like it’s probably not going to be that way," Iyer told the paper.

The Post described her friends’ positions on the issue as being similar. 

Nineteen-year-old Andrea Gonzalez told the Post that Trump's "controversial rhetoric" about women, immigrants and people of color are disdainful, but Biden's lack of support for a cease-fire makes it "difficult" where she leans. 

Pakistani-American student Humza Irfan said the war caused his support for Biden to diminish.
