It’s always a single issue with you people isn’t it? I’m gonna take a wild guess that you never considered the consequences for GAZA if Trump won? Or is it that you didn’t give a fuck as long as you could withhold your “purity” vote? You think a VP has power to “stop” anything? What stupidity!
Also she the president ear and a Jewish husband, she was one of the few ppl with power who could speak out….. Also she hasn’t spoken about the genocide since August of last year
But she isn’t even running for ANYTHING at present, she’s done, so why are you people still so stupidly obsessed with her instead of actually doing some research on who you want to see in office? Instead of whining, get behind a good candidate financially because it takes $$ and lots of it to win!
If ur going to be upset pls read, I did vote for her because I saw a Palestinian American video asking ppl to, I’m not stupid, I knew it would get worse with trump, But I’m not the idiot that had bill Clinton on the campaign trail, Also my single issue is a genocide
Of course, it’s all of our issue. But right now having this regime in office is far worse than what you folks “believe” she would or wouldn’t do. I’m willing to bet she wouldn’t shrug at people being grabbed off our streets and sent to internment camps in swamps, or let Gaza’s children starve.
I agree the current is much worse, But I want a better Democratic Party, one that wouldn’t allow the water to be shut off for 2 million people that are mostly children, They ran as the party of morals, I want them to live up to it
If you mean Gaza, why on Earth do you believe that the Vice President could have had any effing influence on Netanyahu at all? Even today,Trump himself can’t get that bastard to do anything whatsoever. Why would Harris be able to? Come ON! Use critical thinking, so you’re not mistaken for MAGA.
If u think the president and vice president has no power over Isreal then ur mistaken trump turned around Israel bombers mid air with one phone during Iran U think I’m blind, u ppl think they tried to stop this, they were afraid to lose votes and lost their soles and the election
Iran is a completely different story and I’m sure you are aware of that. Netanyahu WANTS all of Gaza and he doesn’t give a rodent’s anus who dies because of it. Trump also wants Gaza because of his plan for hotels and golf courses. But Netanyahu never respected Biden nor Harris. They had no power.
We provide the iron dome, the president can veto weapons shipments and whip votes in their own party to stop a 2/3rds majority vote to be overridden, The shield allows for the actions of Israel, A president can threaten a stoppage to all weapons to create a Palestinian state… they just don’t care
Aha! But NOT the Vice President. See? The only argument I have is that too many blamed Harris exclusively for the actions, or inaction of Biden. In any case, it doesn’t even matter at this point since she’s essentially out of the political arena anyway.
But u think she spoke to Biden and got shot down, She didn’t speak to him she didn’t use ur her political gravitas, She thought supporting Palestine would lose votes and I’m mad at her evil political calculation She is still silent
I agree she wouldn’t allow people being grabbed off the street, but she was the second most powerful person in the administration that was In power that started the starvation and genocide, My dislike with her and the establishment Dems is they’re out of touch with the base and human rights
Then I would suggest that the progressive Left get off their asses and start to actually financially support the candidates you expect to run! You are up against not only the Right, but the well funded PACs of the establishment. Talk is cheap. In THIS political system, it’s gonna take cash!
My god do u run a political PAC, Harris out raised trump 5-1 Cuomo out raised Mamdani If a good democrat comes along they can have my vote and my voice
No I do not run a PAC, but what I DO see are people who complain a lot but when push comes to shove, they fade into the background. Tell me you don’t see that as well.
If a president runs on giving the Palestinians a state, I’ll go door to door, with a sticker on my chest and a smile on my face
Who do you think fits that category? And do they have the resources to win?
The Democratic Party has the resources, they could adopt Mamdani entire campaign but they won’t because they are out of touch
Agreed. No argument there. So, every time I ask the question, I get stonewalled. Who do you folks believe would be the best candidate, and how do we get them interested? Never get a definitive answer to that.
Idk, that seems like a weird response after Zohran has been so successful, seems like the "progressive Left" (Social democrats) are doing stuff. But i'm not murican, so what do i know. Also, I don't get the hostility, the people you are mad at, voted for your candidate. They knew trump was worse.
I look at it more as a spirited conversation, It’s up to me to pick the tone of the words I read, Iv never even gotten an angry email, just advice from my boss on my mistakes lol, Mamdani gave me hope, If he keeps winning maybe my my auto correct will stop seeing his name as a spelling error
Yeah, mine does that too. I really like him, but I’m not in New York. They need to get behind him. It’s gonna be a long and ugly battle.
If he wins we may have hope for the Democratic Party to listen but I’m afraid
Well, admittedly, there is too much influence by donors with a specific political bent. It needs to be offset by his supporters. I’m in Calif, but even I have made contributions to his campaign.
Yes but I am poor, and it’s hard to donate to such a corrupt system, Money has ruined the Democratic Party
I’m not being hostile, just expressing frustration. They all seem to think that a Vice President, ceremonial at best, can personally influence the decisions of other world leaders by suggestion. The VP only has the influence allowed them by the actual president. Trying to tell them that is futile.
Sorry for interpreting your posts as hostile, I'm not used to interacting with twitter people.
I’m glad your here, don’t be sorry
Well if you are talking about Palestine, I don't think Kamala would have done anything even if she had the power. It is too good for the weapons industry. The economy Trumps all. She can't risk losing her doners. Also, telling them to donate, when the top 10%, have most of the money is weird.
Isn’t it better than doing absolutely nothing?
It is, but will probably not work
You can't beat the oligarchs with money.
But money is only part of it. Time is also precious and organizing and participation are also currency of the realm.
I agree, but first you need someone to get behind, Zohran has showed this.
