I understand your point and I agree that harris is in a tough situation figuring biden supports the genocide. However I actually think your take on her needing to walk the line is wrong. Polling actually shows a shift even with dems messaging against Palestine and pretending it all started on Oct 7th. Additionally, if she argued for stopping weapons transfers of offensive weapons, this would also be popular among Americans, a plurality of which support a ceasefire. Just adding context to say that Harris is not pro-palestinian and them banning Palestinians from the DNC has highlighted this. To specify, I will support harris this selection, but just because Trump is a fascist, not because she supports any solution to the conflict.
A plurality of Americans maybe, but I'm not sure about voting Democrats. There are a lot of people on the right who are against Israel for very different reasons and they are not going to vote for Harris. There are a lot of voting Democrats that would choose to sit out if she showed support for Palestine in any way. It's a sad reality, but it is true.
