If you're sitting on the October Surprise please share it. All the evidence we have suggests that Harris wants a ceasefire. While Trump wants a christo-fascist dictatorship and is content to watch Israel complete its genocide. The candidates have distinct positions despite your argument's attempt to conflate the two.
There you go bringing facts and rationality into a bOTh sIDes debate. Bold move.
Hey look more "fact and rationality":
https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israel-says-it-has-secured-87-billion-us-aid-package-2024-09-26/
But sure, she's "calling for a ceasefire". Are you really that guillible or just bad faithed?
I wonder what you would see in your search results if you searched for Harris call for ceasefire.
Less than 87 billion words.
Very much so. Most of the links in mine were about Kamala Harris calling for a ceasefire in Gaza.
Well maybe when she has one ceasefire call per dollar in bombs I will be impressed.
How many calls for ceasefire has Trump, the other person who might become president made? Who is ringing up to encourage Netanyahu to reject Biden's ceasefire plan? Oh yes. Trump. Trump, working for war in the middle east. Trump, who calls himself the best king of Israel. Trump, delighting in the genocide because he has a man crush on dictators and yearns to be one.

I don't think it's OK to put a geriatric genocidal insurrectionist imbecile in the Whitehouse.
I don't think it's okay to put any genocidal people into the whitehouse.
At this point she's decided she doesn't need my vote and she's not getting it. Come to terms with that.
We both know that Trump is the crazy genocidal guy that's ringing Netanyahu up telling him not to have a ceasefire, and Biden and Harris are the sensible ones calling publicly for a ceasefire and trying to convince Netanyahu to go for it. These things are public knowledge and you're in complete denial.
Not sure what you think I am in denial about. I am fully aware they are calling for ceasefire, but I also know they do this while sending more bombs and vetoing any UN action. So really if we are going to cast denial accusations it might start with you thinking Biden and Harris what even a sliver of this to stop.
Ah, yes, Harris and Biden publicly calling for a ceasefire and negotiating one whilst secretly plotting the destruction of Palestine! For the lols? To wind up the republicans? Because Bibi told Biden he was a great president and it went to his head and lost all rational thought? Oh, wait, no, it's Trump that does that
What secret plotting? They are giving them the weapons. If you believe dems when they say we need to stop shooting while they reload Israel's guns you're being played.
And trump would be better in your view?! That's delusional.
No, and I'm not voting for Trump.
Hey you want some facts and rationality?

Harris should be in jail.
ROFL! Harris should be in jail?
For what exactly? I’d LOVE to see this. Please. If you would, explain in detail.
So, tell everyone that you don't know what the VP does without saying it.
Did you mean to respond to someone else with this?
Yeah, meant to reply to the person you replied to. My bad.
It’s all good.

Sooo… Harris is president? I don’t think you understand how any of this works.
Please explain how the Vice President is to blame for this.
Problem is that public statements are one thing, actions are another. And politicians are known to make great many statements they then contradict by their actions.
What actions would you have a vice president take? What exactly do you think she has the power to do right now?
Then the party establishment had two options:
From just your second line I can see that you have no idea what powers the vice president has.
Where and when was she supposed to vote against or for those things?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamala_Harris
So from my understanding she gets the final vote on split issues. She could have leveraged her political power to push these issues to get to vote.
And which tied votes in specific should she have voted a different way on? Please name them.
Because I can't think of a single tied vote regarding Israel.
So she called for a ceasefire back in March? and then in July? And then in September?
That doesn't sounds very effective does it?
