Very different context there. I'd much prefer a Bernie (minus the Israel stance) or an AOC, but some points in history call for pragmatism. I'm a Brit anyway, so not really my circus.
I'd like to hear what you think is right in the current situation. Throwing quotes and platitudes without serious discussion of the options is a shallow discussion.
You prefer Trump or Kamala? Do you genuinely see another option? I hardly see the overthrowing of the capitalist class is happening in the next 4 months. What do you think is best for the Palestinian cause, Kamala or Trump?
Plus, Kamala in the vid is talking to AIPAC, in a very different context. What do you genuinely expect a politician to say?
I would expect a decent person not to engage with a genocidal regime. But I wouldn't expect anything from a politician.
