They're blinded by the war in Gaza. Biden supports Israel so he can't be voted for. She's tried to suggest that a Trump presidency will be way worse for Gaza but that doesn't land.

So, rather than being shunned, she just doesn't bring it up.

    - progressives had a seat at the table when Biden first took office and got most or all of what they wanted in the stimulus package, and a good chunk - hollywood big shot Jun 28, 17:41 1
      - I don’t understand anyone not seeing just how many very progressive things have been done, and even more proposed, under joe. unprecedented in modern - i.b.! Jun 28, 17:52
