Israel is losing Americans’ support. Will the Democrats listen?

(May 28, 2025)

These findings add to the evidence not only that support for Palestinian rights and a Palestinian state are far higher than many within the political establishment have been willing to acknowledge, but that Democrats’ refusal to take these issues seriously has become a severe political liability.

Yet over four months into the Trump presidency, even as it positions itself as the party defending democracy, the Democratic establishment has failed to respond to public sentiment and signal any serious shift in its support for Israel.

Biden‘s Enduring Legacy: Awful. No Worse

If ever there was a searing, sanctimonious self-immolation in presidential politics, this was it and the costs are incalculable. The damage will reverberate for decades and might never be recovered.

It will be all but impossible for the Democratic Party to accept responsibility for the catastrophe it has inflicted on America, through its head, Joe Biden, and the complicity of all of the party’s upper echelon. It will, thus, ensure that nothing will change. We desperately need a new party that reflects the interest and needs of the American people, and not those of the party’s corporate owners. Change cannot come too soon.

It’s Election Day in America

• Americans are heading to the polls to vote for their next president. Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump each need at least 270 electoral votes to win. The battleground states of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin are expected to be pivotal to the path to victory.

• Polls are starting to open across the country. Harris and Trump tied with three votes each in the tiny New Hampshire community of Dixville Notch, which opened and closed its poll just after midnight ET in a decades-old tradition.

• The candidates held their final campaign events in battleground states last night. Harris ended her 107-day campaign in Pennsylvania, while Trump spoke in Michigan — where he has ended three of his presidential campaigns.

According to polling conducted the last two days of October by the Council on American Islamic Relations of “1,449 verified Muslim voters,” Green Party candidate Jill Stein is marginally ahead of Vice President Kamala Harris with America’s 2.5 million voters of the Islamic faith.

“42% now favor Stein for president while 41% favor Harris. This is a statistical tie similar to the 29% support each candidate received in CAIR’s late August survey,” the group is announcing.

Trump Rally Speaker Tony Hinchcliffe Calls Puerto Rico ‘Floating Island Of Garbage’—Campaign, GOP Lawmakers React

(Oct 28, 2024)

Hinchcliffe—a roast comic who hosts the podcast “Kill Tony”—opened Sunday’s rally as one of many speakers before Trump, and said: “There’s a lot going on. I don’t know if you know this, but there’s literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it’s called Puerto Rico.”

The remark was met with uncertainty by the crowd, leading Hinchcliffe to laugh and say, “okay, we’re getting there, again, normally I don’t follow the national anthem.”

Trump campaign senior advisor Daniella Alvarez said in a statement to Forbes following the rally the “joke does not reflect the views of President Trump or the campaign.”

CNN Town Hall Exposes Kamala‘s Inability To State Beliefs; Democrats‘ „Trump Is Hitler“ Tactic Failing Again

t‘s Thursday, October 24.

As some of you might have noticed, I was not here the last few days, but I am appreciative of Michael Tracey, the intrepid independent journalist, who sat in for me one night and of our excellent team who put together two great shows in my absence so that we weren‘t off the air even one night. But I‘m very happy to be back.

Tonight: From the moment Democratic Party elites imposed Kamala Harris on their party and then on the country, the most glaring weakness of her candidacy was manifest from the very beginning: she has no actual views or policy she‘s willing or able to express – to the point that they actually kept her away from any unscripted interviews, and her campaign site had no issue positions of any kind for weeks, not even vague banalities. The campaign strategy could not have been any clearer: to replicate Hillary Clinton‘s 2016 tactic of featuring as the overarching message that you should vote for her because she‘s not Donald Trump.

Top pollster identifies the moment that could cost Kamala Harris the election as ‘everything froze’

Luntz warned the shift in the Harris campaign could cost her the White House as voters demand more details about her.

“The fact is Donald Trump is defined,” he explained. “He’s not gaining, he’s not losing. He is who he is, and his vote is where it is. She is less well defined, and if she continues just to define this race as ‘vote against Trump,’ she’s going to stay where she is now and she may lose.”

Trump chips away at Harris’s national advantage, two new polls show

A new ABC News-Ipsos poll, conducted from Oct. 4-8, showed that among likely voters, Harris led Trump 50 percent to 48 percent, within the poll’s margin of error. Last month, the same poll found Harris at 51 percent support among likely voters compared to Trump at 46 percent.

An NBC News poll also conducted from Oct. 4-8 and showed an even split between Trump and Harris, with each garnering 48 percent support among registered voters. In that same poll last month, Harris was up by five points — another result within the poll’s margins.

Biden cautiously optimistic as wider war in West Asia appears averted

Republican nominee and former President Donald Trump has seized on Biden’s challenges in the Middle East, framing his own administration as one that delivered “peace in the Middle East.”

Speaking in Michigan, Trump told voters, “They want strength in the Oval Office, law and order, and common sense.” Trump’s comments resonated with many Arab American voters, a demographic with significant concerns over the ongoing violence.

In a Tight Presidential Race, Third-Party Candidates Present a Wild Card

With a month to go before what is widely expected to be an extraordinarily close election, an extra element of unpredictability looms: In every battleground state, there is at least one third-party or independent presidential candidate on the ballot.

None of these candidates will come anywhere close to winning the presidency. Jill Stein, the Green Party nominee, is polling at about 1 percent nationally, according to New York Times polling released last week. Same with Chase Oliver, the Libertarian Party candidate.

The Biggest Moments From the First Debate Between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump

Harris maintained the same stance she has previously shared regarding the war in Gaza: She condemned Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack while expressing support for a cease-fire and a two-state solution.

“Israel has a right to defend itself,” Harris said. “It is also true far too many innocent Palestinians have been killed—children, mothers. What we know is that this war must end.”

4 takeaways from the first Trump-Harris presidential debate

If Democrats were concerned about anything amounting to a repeat of Biden’s shoddy debate performance in late June, which led to his dropping out, it was quickly erased. Harris returned to the form that made her the runaway winner of the early 2020 Democratic primary debates.

More than that, though, with a premium on Trump defining the lesser-known Harris, she made sure the debate was overwhelmingly about Trump and his less-appealing traits.

Grief over Gaza, qualms over US election add up to anguish for many Palestinian Americans

Demoralized by the Biden administration’s handling of the Israel-Hamas war, Palestinian American Samia Assed found in Vice President Kamala Harris’ ascension — and her running mate pick — “a little ray of hope.”

That hope, she said, shattered during last month’s Democratic National Convention, where a request for a Palestinian American speaker was denied and listening to Harris left her feeling like the Democratic presidential nominee will continue the U.S. policies that have outraged many in the anti-war camp.
