"This is what Democrats actually believe."
I'm calling bullshit. Bernie Sanders and Rashida Tlaib have both spoken out against the genocide, and yet both of them are still in office. Hell, Tlaib held up a sign that read "war criminal" during Netanyahu's speech before congress!
Kamala and Walz are superstars right now. Yet, we're supposed to believe that if she opposed Israel, the almighty AIPAC would dump a bunch of money into Trump's campaign and get him elected? Money is a huge factor in politics, but simply injecting more money doesn't cause somebody to win or lose.
AIPAC aren't gods, and the idea that they are is actually oddly antisemitic. It's like saying "We can't piss off Israel, because they control who wins or loses the election." This is batshit conspiracy theory territory.
Kamala has already shown that she isn't afraid of Trump. She needs to show that she isn't afraid of Israel, either. That is, if she's serous about ending the genocide.
