A bit old at this point, but I think this article is a great example of what’s good and bad about Kamala.

tl;dr, she wanted to call out Israel more strongly for Palestinian genocide, but Biden’s people said no and rewrote her speech, so three anonymous sources (almost certainly Harris staffers) leak this to the press. When Harris is asked on the record she denies all this because she’s ultimately a team player who will cover for crappy moderates when she has to, but her initial impulses are good (or, at the very least, better than Biden’s).

    She might not be great in any one way.

    But she’s good in a lot of ways, and since she’ll be compared to the last two presidents, she’s going to look fucking amazing the next four years.

    That doesn’t mean we can skip the 2028 primary tho.
