    Democrats are very divided on Israel but lots are very pro-Israel. Most American Jews vote Democratic.

    Doesn’t mean they agree with Netanyahu’s handling of Gaza, but pro-Israel nonetheless.

      Okay, but lots of Democrats won’t vote for a pro-genocide administration. Someone who volunteered to be a soldier for their regime would have been seen as proof to them that Kamala was just as bad as Biden on Israel.

        Wouldn’t have mattered much when the alternative is Trump, which would be a thousand times worse than any candidate the Democrats could come up with.

          Not all Democrats will vote blue no matter who and Harris’s pick seems to be an acknowledgement that she can’t afford to piss off the uncommitted movement.

        Yeah, people on social media, including Lemmy and Reddit, think that Democrats are definitely not pro-Israel. Many are. The party includes a wide range of opinions on Israel.
