    Harris’s moves over the next 48 hours might decide the election. There is no path through the EC without MI, WI, and MN. She quite literally needs the entire Muslim vote in those states (maybe not MN) to win.

    Muslims need to be shown that islamaphobia is no longer guiding white house policy. It can’t be the case that Israel’s actions or behavior over the past 7 months are excusable.

    She needs to use narrow and specific language to show clear daylight between how shell be approaching this issue and how Biden did.

      My biggest concern is that as VP she doesn’t set policy.

      I don’t really expect anything to change policy wise- Biden is a Zionist, and I’m not sure she can get him to change.

      It’s very likely that we’ll never know what they discuss in the private meeting (and it’s exceedingly likely that that meeting is going to decide just how hard AIPAC and other Israeli influence groups go for Trump.)

        Yeah. The most were’ going to get is language. Her not attending Bibi’s moment in Congress seems like something, but the daylight needs to be CLEAR.

          Invite him on stage for a little surprise presser talking about the good work the ICC is doing.

        That’s gotta be strategic. Kamala doesn’t get any of the stink of the Gaza situation on her hands and Biden doesn’t piss off AIPAC. At the end of the day there are no easy solutions to the Gaza situation. This might be the only way to handle it without a devastating loss of support.

        It’s a hard job. That’s why we pay them the medium bucks.

          Yup.

          Also keep in mind the rumors that they censored her remarks that one time. Dunno that it’s true but also, wouldn’t be surprised.

          Edit to add: we all known AIPAC is going to come down against democrats I think the best course of combatting that is to embrace it. Make it a campaign issue- foreign money buying influence to control America. Maybe go a little populist there on the messaging
