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.

    American Democracy in a nutshell. You get two choices, they’re both awful…

    The democratic process doesn’t start on election day.

          Yes give them more money, they’re doing such great things with the money that’s already given to them.

          I’m not giving another dime to the Democratic Party so it’s more like 9,999,999 Democrats.

          I wouldn’t even be in the party if we didn’t have closed primaries in my state.

            fair enough.

            1 million American leftists x $100 to Bernie Sanders or AOC in the primaries = $100 million

            and

            1 million American leftists x $100 to Green party = $100 million

      Liberal democracy starts with the donors in a smoke-filled room and ends with one side complaining that the election was rigged.

      It started well into the election cycle after Biden refused to honor his one term pledge.

      No time for a primary now! Oops didn’t mean to! /$

      First Past The Post voting has got to go, or else the USA is toast. A shame the democratic party believes themselves to be more important then the country itself.
