Kamala Harris is carefully navigating US-Israel relations while Benjamin Netanyahu visits Washington, opting to skip sessions where she would sit behind him and focusing on civilian toll in Gaza. As the potential Democratic nominee, she faces the challenge of replacing Trump as the main opponent after his removal from politics, with Trump’s campaign preparing opposition research on Harris. Harris is known for her strong advocacy for reproductive rights and may garner support from Democratic voters based on her gender and stance on abortion, especially after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade. If she becomes the nominee, Harris will need to choose a running mate, with potential candidates being considered. Biden, while isolating with Covid-19, has endorsed Harris as his successor and urged staffers to embrace her. After securing enough delegates to become the nominee, Harris emphasized the contrast between her vision for America’s future and Trump’s, focusing on democracy, reproductive freedom, and equal opportunities. Overall, Harris’s campaign is gaining momentum, with record fundraising and increasing support as she positions herself as a strong candidate against the backdrop of a changing political landscape.
