    They need to take their demands to the people actually killing Palestinians.

    Harris, as VP, has no say in the matter. She will if she can get elected.

    Trump, the only other real candidate, thinks Israel needs to kill them quicker.

    Those are your two choices.

      VP Harris and Gov. Walz are not on a victory tour, they’re on a job interview.

      Being condescending to protesters who represent over 100k votes in a crucial swing state is like being condescending to a hiring manager in a job interview.

      “Why don’t anti-war protesters interrupt Trump?”

      Protesting a man they will not vote for, who will not listen to them, is useless.

      They’re protesting someone they believe is movable.

      Protesting Trump on this is like going into a car wash to order food. You can order food but you’re not going to get it!

        This is in no way shape or form a job interview. At the end of a job interview you don’t chose the person who will do the exact thing you passed on the other candidate for. The wheels are in motion, there won’t be another candidate. Kamala doesn’t even have the power to do what you want ffs.

        This is an election. No single group will get everything they want.

    Conveniently leaving out the part where she mentions that those people are only helping to get trump elected and that trump would be 100 times worse for Palestine.

    Almost as if those people pushing for the Palestine issue only on Harris but not on trump have some kind of agenda…

    They litterly made biden drop out of the race. You don’t think his position on Palestine contributed to that? You guys won’t quit until Trump is in the whitehouse.

      Biden dropping out is good though? Kamala has a way higher chance of being elected than he did. I don’t think you’re making the argument you think you’re making.

          Not specifically. But maybe holding democrats to having standards and not electing any bad leader based on “at least it’s not trump” is good

              It’s a free win for her as long as she stops saying shit like “hey protestors if you talk about my platform trump will get elected”

              I mean, unless you think democrats would say “I like the Israel money too much to listen to voters on the issue”

      Maybe the pro-Palestine protestors are Israeli agitators trying to tank whatever little political opposition America can muster to stop the genocide. Either that, or these are the dumbest most ineffective protestors of all time.

      I don’t. I’m definitely voting for Harris, but I don’t. I think they made Biden drop out because he’s in mental decline and sucks at campaigning.

    I hope she aggrees on a weapons barrage, we’ll see how the negotiations go.

    Anyways, she’ll be a million times better for both gazans and ukrainians than her opponent, but I do hope she’s less bad than Biden on Gaza.

    This is all psyop astroturf. Most americans are so easy to gaslight. Even if the stuff not posted directly by bots are the people who are most gullible amplifying the propaganda. If people really wanted to do something for Palestine they would focus on keeping Trump out of the whitehouse and after that or simultaneously focus their efforts on AIPAC and helping those AIPAC is targeting to eliminate from Congress.
