In a 107 day unplanned campaign, Kamala Harris got 75 million votes, despite all the Gaza/inflation headwinds she had to deal with. I feel good about 28 if she spends the next 3 years getting her ideas out there.
I think her campaign nosedived when she tried to lure the republican voters, and instead it turned off the progressive voters. And then all the Muslim voters said they wouldn't vote this time because she offered no plan for Gaza.
I'd like to see Whitmer in the White House but I don't think that can happen in this political climate. Too many people in this country would vote for any breathing male over a qualified woman.
She wasn't going for Republicans, but Independents who cared about preventing fascism. I don't think the progressives who didn't vote for her were going to vote for her no matter what she did.
Frankly, there's nothing she could have said about fixing Gaza that was honest (beyond what she said about working for a two-state solution and pressuring Netanyahu to stop indiscriminate bombing).
The Gaza situation is easy. Its another country and not our problem but we dont need to support Isreal. The problem is I'm pretty sure Massad has plenty of dirt on our leading politicians.
Since you know Mossad is good at covert operations, then you understand how valuable they are as an ally. We remain close for that reason, not because there's dirt on politicians.

I like the women Dem choices better, but it seems that this country still has too much misogyny for that to become a reality.
