This assumes that the protesters won't vote for Harris come election time.
Protests are important - especially obnoxious, inconvenient ones. If Harris and the general public can't ignore the protesters, Harris is more likely to act on the protested issue instead of sidestepping it.
unless an arms embargo is put into place before the election, I will not be voting for harris. if the PSL is on the ballot in my state, I will be voting for them, otherwise it'll probably be Stein. I'm sure I'm far from the only person with this opinion.
unfortunately, with her responses to Palestinian protestors at her campaign events (the whole "I'm speaking" debacle), and the administration averaging about 1-2 arms shipments to Israel a day since October, I don't see her campaign walking back their stance and imposing an embargo, so she's probably not getting my vote.
If she's serious about wanting to win, I think she needs to pivot hard on Gaza. There are so many that would want to vote for Harris if she just made that change. And I can't blame any of them for it, having pro-genocide be a red-line is completely valid. It's completely insane that Trump can get away with acting like the peace ticket, wtf has happened to the Democratic party since 2016. Somehow it's the pro-war and anti-immigration party now, even though those kind of voters will still ride Republican regardless.
