      She lost Michigan left, not the moderates. In this case this isn’t going to hurt him on the left unless he changes his message. But she can show the moderates that he isn’t radioactive. It’s also worth remembering that she never got to run her own campaign, the corporate wing of the democratic party basically used her as a face.

        I wouldn’t be so sure. Self-proclaimed moderates in America tend to want stuff like universal healthcare, better public transport and taxes on the rich, and the median American voter hates Israel now. My impression is that actual moderates (the people that would be legitimately represented by Hakeem Jeffries or Kamala Harris) are very fortunately no longer a significant voter bloc, if they ever were. I won’t deny the potential benefits of name recognition, but on the other hand we can’t forget about all the Michigan Arabs who rightly hate Harris’s guts.

        That’s now how elections work lol Kamala Harris is despised across the board as an uncharismatic wet blanket of a candidate who is violently in favor of supporting genocide to the point of lying to the general public.

          “Violently in favor of supporting genocide”.

          Didn’t she support the two state solution?

          If her support of El-Sayed is enough to make you not vote for him you were never going to vote in the first place so why lie about it?

            The two state solution is what we currently have. The only path forward with apartheid like we have in Israel is to follow the model of South Africa and democratically form a single state that represents all.

            I do not support two staters. They are just supporting Israel’s illegal existence and will never support the Palestinians they disdain with all their heart.

              That’s an awful lot of words for “I’ll let the fascists have it instead of voting for the obviously better candidate.”

              How’s Palestine doing with Trump in the white house?

                About the same as it was doing when Biden was president. You do understand both sides of our last election were on the same side of this issue right? And how our government lied about it for almost a year before Trump took over?

                Why are you so excited about Palestinians being genocides? Y’all libs always talk about this with such glee.

                A one state solution is the only path forward where Israel is dismantled a new state it formed that democratically represents all people. Anything short of that will just reproduce the conditions we have today (that you seem to like)

                  You must love having ICE pulling innocent people off the streets and shipping them God knows where while Israel does whatever the fuck it wants unchecked.

                  You are a fucking moron if you think she’d be worse or even the same for Palestine as the current administration.

                    You know Kamala Harris ran on the same border enforcement that Trump did that led to bolstering ICE and Biden vastly expanding their funding right? Right?

                    Or have you memory holed this?
