“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.”
It’s absolutely wild to me that people act like there is some magically viable third option at this point.
It’s wild that “Harris should change” is interpreted in all cases by people who don’t want her to as third party/trump support.
If you can’t extrapolate outcomes given the very simple terms at stake here, you don’t deserve to be so fucking loud.
Your inability to parse reality is nobody else’s responsibility.
Your mental deficiencies are not your fault, but they are your responsibility.
All she needed was to say: " what Israel is doing is an acceptable, I withdraw my support to Biden, and I am running on a peaceful foreign policy" or any other lies she need to do to secure the votes and make everyone happy. But she insists on doing nothing which makes me wonder why.
