Then she should have messaged better on Israel. On that particular item I also feel like Netanyahu is on a timeline. I’m not sure he cares about the election though. More like he’s trying to get us pulled into a conflict with Iran before January because Biden can’t stand up to him. If he thinks Biden is just locked by the election then he’ll try to do it this month. Harris’ messaging doesn’t really take that into account in my opinion.
There is no candidate who can win this race that won’t keep writing blank checks for Israel. If anything, Netanyahu wants Trump to win. He is enraged by even the minimal pushback he gets from the Biden administration.
There’s a chance Harris is more like Obama and reigns in everything but iron dome reloads, while actually holding them responsible for settler violence. If your standard is completely disengage from Israel then yeah we aren’t there yet politically. Although shooting at the UN might just fucking do it.
She’s trying to stay neutral, Israel has a right to exist, there must be an immediate cease-fire, etc. This in contrast to Biden parroting the IDF’s PR. She is clearly not as pro Israel as Biden.
Countries have no right to exist. They exist because they can. An apartheid ethnostate certainly has no right to exist or right to our support. If Israel has a right to exist, what about Palestine?
How are we defining ‘flawless’, exactly?
All else aside - yea, I actually kinda agree with this, though I get the distinct impression not in the way you mean it.
edit - what happens if it’s the undecided vote that causes harris to lose, not Stein?

I’d much rather her do more than message better, but i’d take clear messaging over whatever the fuck we’ve been getting.
She’s trying to stay neutral. It’s not working.
There’s no such thing as neutral - either we’re supporting Israel through their genocide or we’re not.
Putting on my objective hat for a minute, pro Israel voters think the same way. There’s not really a neutral block of voters on this issue.

That’s sure not what she’s running on.

I agree with you. I’m just laying out why Harris might be better for Palestinians than Biden.
She…still loses? I don’t understand your question
I’m asking who you’ll decide to blame, since that seems to be the focus.
If you’re unconcerned with blame then maybe there’s no disagreement here.
Undecided voters are imo always a contemptible lot, but no more this election than any other.
Maybe read this a few times yourself and see if you can spot the problem on your own.
If someone is stupid enough that they need to be flattered into no longer doing stupid things, that makes them all the more contemptible in my eyes.
Jesus christ, is that what politics are to you? Flattery or contempt?
Anyone who’s still undecided at this point likely needs one or both.
Lmao good luck then
