Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee for president, fired back at pro-Palestinian protesters of Israel’s war in Gaza as they interrupted her speech during a Wednesday night campaign rally in Detroit.
“You know what? If you want Donald Trump to win, then say that. Otherwise, I’m speaking,” Harris said with a long stare, drawing loud cheers from supporters in the crowd before chants of, “Not going back!”
There is a time and place for everything. When you are on the cusp of electing a president that will give Israel all the lea way and weapons to remove gaza from existence, maybe you should take it easy on the other candidate that will not do that.
The time and place is when we have fucking leverage.
You don’t though. You’re pretending desperately that you do, but you don’t .
It was this leverage and pressure that pushed biden to not run
This pressure should be kept up as long as genocide is occurring. You cannot have freedom and peace for you but not someone else, especially if you are in a country that forments and causes most wars in the world
The uncommitted movement in Michigan, a battleground state, absolutely does. This is the time
Harris, presumably, wants to win. That gives us leverage.
Unless, of course, elections don’t matter and this is all just theater.
If the anti-genocide vote has no leverage then why did Kamala say that?
How do you know Kamala won’t do that? What signal has she given that her policy will be different from Biden’s?
No promises, but worst case scenario is incomprehensibly better than trump.
Her national security advisor tweeted this today:
Translation: “We’re going to continue Biden’s ineffectual policy of begging Israel to please be nice as they’re dropping the bombs we keep sending them.”
Wait for next season, MLK
