JULY 25, 2024

Statement by Vice President Kamala Harris

Yesterday, at Union Station in Washington, D.C. we saw despicable acts by unpatriotic protestors and dangerous hate-fueled rhetoric.

I condemn any individuals associating with the brutal terrorist organization Hamas, which has vowed to annihilate the State of Israel and kill Jews. Pro-Hamas graffiti and rhetoric is abhorrent and we must not tolerate it in our nation.

I condemn the burning of the American flag. That flag is a symbol of our highest ideals as a nation and represents the promise of America. It should never be desecrated in that way.

I support the right to peacefully protest, but let’s be clear: Antisemitism, hate and violence of any kind have no place in our nation.

You know what, nah. Fuck you Kamala, I’m writing in a socialist.

Had my vote for about 3 seconds.

Fuck the two party system, voting for either side is feeding the regime.

Standard presidential strategy (pre-trump) is to "run to the center" once the primaries are over. Yes this is disappointing, but I'll judge her by her actions. She also didn't attend Netanyahu's speech, but that could just as easily have been travel logistics or it could have been a snub to Netanyahu who is courting Trump and the R's.

She's not my favorite candidate, but she's miles better than Biden, and Biden's a light-year better than Trump.

Frantically working to prove she cannot think freely or objectively.
