But you take that for granted. Why was that the only other option? Why couldn’t Kamala say “I’ve heard my voters who pledge uncommitted unless I promise consequences for violating the red lines”

Your question suggests that you refuse to hear anything but the most direct, unequivocal statement, no matter how politically toxic. I think you overestimate the size & influence of your constituency in the US, at that time at least. Remember, Biden was restraining BN to some degree.

Schroedingers constituency. Large enough to blame for losing the election but not large enough to change policy for.

You just want to be catered to & given the appearance of power. You ignore reality, which is the US opinion & the effectiveness of accusations of anti-semitism or pro-terrorist, if not the rampant racism. Trump met with the same group, bullshitted as he does, and came away with an endorsement.

So I guess you made a choice to refuse what was offered, despite the actual victims you're concerned about saying quite clearly they preferred her, because you knew better, right? Unfortunate they have to live & die because of your choices.

Do you organize with Palestinians? I do. That’s not what happened. I’m going for that run now.

Again, how's that working out for you?

They Aaron Bushnell’d the country. Every eligible voter should have voted for Harris/Walz and Trump should have never been an option. You have to be over 18 years old to vote for a reason, and you should have to be a sane person who isn’t compromised and a vindictive felon to run.

Trump never came away with an endorsement from the uncommitted and the protestors for Palestine. That’s just nonsense. I’m aware she had to walk a tightrope, but this is accepting some vile propaganda as business as usual - amidst the backdrop of genocide.

Oh forgive my confusion. These people certainly claim the same concerns. It seemed to me you were all working to elect the same clown.
