Summary
Key leaders of the “Abandon Harris” movement, which encouraged voters to oppose Kamala Harris due to U.S. support for Israel during the Gaza war, are now expressing unease about Trump’s incoming administration.
Many in the movement, including prominent Muslim leaders, voted for Trump hoping he would bring peace to the Middle East.
However, concerns are growing over his Cabinet picks, such as Mike Huckabee and Tulsi Gabbard, which some see as troubling for Muslim communities.
Realistically they weren’t gonna hold a fair primary anyway. If they held one we would’ve gotten candidate Shapiro, who would have been stomped into dust by Trump.
In large part because Jaimie Harrison was the DNC chair.
There’s an upcoming vote for chair, and there’s some standouts and one crazy with no chance.
But from what I know about them (not everything) we’re almost guaranteed a good chair with a very good chance of getting an amazing one.
I’m no fan of the DNC, but there’s a real chance to turn everything around and it’s barely a month away
Here’s hoping, though remember the people who voted for Harrison are still the ones voting. I remember we did get Howard Dean after his campaign, so hopefully there’s a similar thing that happens.
Jaimie got it because Biden appointed him…
He was the only option for DNC members to vote for, it’s a rubber stamp process when a Dem wins the presidential.
The only time they really vote is when a Dem president doesn’t win, or the chair resigns early (I think).
