#SHAPIRO

[meret118]

Shapiro has refused to endorse a cease fire, and called for police crack downs on student protests. He's the one person I did NOT want her to pick. I've seen two articles that say she's announcing her VP choice in Philadelphia, which means shapiro.

From the NYT: Around 13 percent of the voters who say they voted for Mr. Biden last time, but do not plan to do so again, said that his foreign policy or the war in Gaza was the most important issue to their vote. 

------

It does no good winning PA if she loses Michigan given the number of arab-americans there, and maybe other states too. She can't afford to lose 13% of young voters! This election is neck and neck. If she really picks Shapiro I'm afraid she will lose.

I still think Kelly is the best choice, especially with the attacks on Harris about border security. I don't know much about Walz, but I would rather have him than Shapiro. I think Shapiro would be a disaster.

ETA: We are literally fighting to prevent the end of our democracy. Why take the chance of losing so many votes?

ETA 2: I worry with him on the ticket it would become a one issue campaign with Harris playing defense.

ETA 2: No one being considered is perfect of course, because no one is perfect. I worry he will be too divisive though in an election we have to win.

@pandurso I'm still crying over this string of messages

I know Shapiro refers to GSD as getting shit done, but I like to imagine there is a second, just as important meaning which is him voicing his support for Major, President Biden’s German shepherd dog who likes to bite people

Democrats’ rush to Kamala Harris bypasses the question of who has the best chance of beating Trump. Are Democrats really going to do this? Democrats’ rush to Kamala Harris bypasses the question of who has the best chance of beating Trump.

For anyone disappointed that Harris chose Walz over Shapiro, in addition to her clicking with Walz, from what I've read he was the only one who told her his job was to support her during their meeting.

Shapiro on the other hand, had a lot of demands about being a very active VP. Fetterman, (a senator from the same state as Shapiro), even told Harris he didn't think Shapiro had the right temperament to be vice president, since they don't have a big role once in office. He's popular in PA, but he wasn't a good fit. I think Shapiro wants to be president instead. If you're a fan of his I absolutely think you'll have a chance to vote for him as he runs for that job at some point. (Assuming trump doesn't win, and we don't have actual elections anymore.)

I didn't know anything about Walz, and had actually thought Kelly would be the best choice. I don't think anyone can argue with the results of having Walz on the ticket though. :)

as much as i hate the daily wire and anyone who associates with them, i can’t help but feel bad for Abigail Shapiro. She’s so unnecessarily sexualized by both the far right and liberals. it’s seriously a problem, this poor girl probably doesn’t have a clue some basement nerd is making hentai of her. i genuinely feel bad for her and i hope that in the end, she’s remembered for something other than her milkers (idk what else to call them). that’s it. but seriously, leave her alone.

Ben Shapiro is currently boosting insane claims like this to his 6 million followers with zero evidence
