“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.”

This is what I’m referring to. Palestinians hopeful that Harris will bring change and feeling encouraged that she’s rebuked Netanyahu.
If people digging out their dead children can be hopeful that she’ll bring change, instead of cynical, perhaps you should follow their example.
Which is as meaningless as her calls for a ceasefire while still supporting endless money and weapons
Actual Palestinians didn’t find it meaningless, apparently. And if they can believe it, so can we.
Of everyone, people in Gaza have the most right to be cynical. Yet, they aren’t. If they have hope, who are we to say their hope is wrong?
You haven’t stopped it anymore than Kamala, get serious and go show us all how it’s done, chump.
The difference is that she has the ability to I don’t
Not at all, the vice president has like no powers or responsibilities. The most significant things they can do is break a tie in the Senate.
