    All they have to do is pledge to follow the Leahy Law…

    Israel won’t comply, which means we legally can’t provide arms. Kamala doesn’t even have to be “the bad guy”, she can just say she’s choosing to follow American law and if Israel wants arms then they can comply like every other recipient has to.

    It’s really as easy as saying:

    If elected I will not break American law to send arms to foreign countries.

    Boom, election locked up.

      How many voters would she lose if she declared intent to stop assisting Isreal?

      She might possibly gain a few, but would she lose any?

        She’d gain more than she’d lose, even before counting in the electoral college. Conditioning Israeli aid is supported by the majority of people of Democrats, Republicans and independents, and the people who don’t want it don’t care too much either way. Definitely not more than left wingers who want the genocide to stop. In terms of votes it’s a no brainer.

          Yeah, I would hope there are more anti-genocide voters but i doubt it, honestly.
