“To those people who are saying, ‘Well, I can’t support Harris because she disagrees [with] Trump on that issue’ … he will be closer to Netanyahu,” Sanders said on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
Sanders said he thinks Vice President Harris can be moved “on that issue” of the Israel-Hamas war.
Harris has called for a cease-fire deal and pushed for the war in Gaza to end, but she faces scrutiny from both sides — from people who want to see Hamas defeated and those who call for the end of the war in Gaza.
“So, if we are able to elect Harris, I think we’re going to have an opportunity to move her on that issue, to make it clear, we cannot allow children in Gaza to starve to death,” Sanders said. “She will be open to that. I doubt that Trump will.”
I think that’s an incredibly myopic outlook and while Harris isn’t going to single handedly fix the myriad of issues that America both faces at home and brings to the globe, it’s hyperbolic to pretend that the outcomes will be 100% identical should Trump win versus Harris.
I doubt the outcome for Palestine will change much, but Palestine isn’t the only thing the president can affect.
Less myopic and more privileged. Glad theyre in such a position to feel smugly while others suffer.
While you advocate for the people keeping them marginalized
Enjoy your new openly fascist right wing party.
And you go enjoy your well-aged fascist party 🥳🥳
Socialists are not fascist, that’s reserved for the duopoly
And which party is that exactly? Who are you voting for?
Who I’m voting for is irrelevant. It’s neither the blue fascist or the red fascist.
