If Harris is elected, I suppose she won’t make great compromises on her promises, and perhaps she intends to do something major about Gaza, but isn’t saying anything before 5 November as to not frighten the moderates, centrists, and Israel-sympathizers—maybe.
There’s more to this election than Gaza. There’s a lot of other damage trump wants to do. Yeah I want Israel to stop, but it’s not the only issue people care about.
The lives of a (relative) few American women who miscarry, a few depressed American TGs committing suicide, and several American teens who die in school shootings are worth more than 40 000 Gazan lives—but again, voting for Stein is a vote for Trump because the margins are thin—way too thin—because Biden, Harris, Walz, and company couldn’t widen them enough in a few months—or a few years in the case of Biden and Harris—to allow for people to vote their hearts.
In 1980 John Anderson got a bit over 5.7 million votes or a bit over 6.6% but a bit over half the popular vote still went to Reagan—and let’s not talk about California where if 2.5 million who voted for Biden instead voted for Trump, or if 5 million of them voted 3rd parties, the state would still remain blue—if you are Californian you should still vote for Harris—because something-something vote-splitting something-something-not-gonna-win something-something non-career-politician-is-a-grifter.
Personally, if I was American I wouldn’t vote for either Stein or West because both are too close to Putin, but FFS, the arguments by the Democrats, and occasionally Republicans, against voting 3rd parties are stupid.
FWIW,
