    Ah yes, picking a massive fight with the person who’s actually in charge of foreign policy right now, failing to produce any meaningful change in policy because she’s not yet in charge, putting the whole Gaza issue heavily in the news during the campaign, and framed in a particular way which would have been guaranteed to crater support from both the pro-Israel people and the pro-Palestine people, because of the type of infighting that would have developed as various Democrats and supporters felt the need to try to placate supporters of one side or another.

    It’s genius. That would have been a perfect campaign strategy for Kamala Harris. I only can’t understand how I didn’t see it until you just now brought it up.

      She’s campaigning. It’s literally her job to put her proposed policies out there. If she holds back for fear of offending her boss then she didn’t want the job.
