I think all she had to do was denounce the Israeli genocide and let voters know she was going to stand up to Israel.
just dont mention it, wouldve been enough. plus she had cards stacked against her from the start that was out of her control.
She was being criticized for not mentioning it until people started demanding an answer and threatening to withhold their vote over her silence.
I don't buy this. Yes, I blame a lot of Trump's victory on Biden, but I think Harris absolutely could have done something about it. She could have stopped Biden's campaign cold by saying she didn't believe he should run for a second term
Instead she went along with it, repeatedly stating she thought he was fit to run again. Either she is a poor judge of character or blatantly lied. Either way she supported a doomed campaign until it was too late for an actual primary
first of all the voting machines was rigged to hell, the DNC dint do anything about it thats the most important part, almost no news agency is picking up the story at all.. deck stacked against her, she was thrust into the campaign in late july. she definitely has her fault, but her loss being entirely her fault, is part of the propaganda that pushed on the "protest voters"
Yeah she would have been way better off not even aknowledging it.
She either lost the Zionist donations or the support of the youth depending on if she acknowledged the genocide. She could have avoided the whole choice if she avoided it.
