‘Antisemitic left’ blocking Jewish VP pick: Columnist | On Balance

Batya Ungar-Sargon, opinion editor at Newsweek, says the “antisemitic left” won’t let Kamala Harris pick the best choice for a running mate, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro. She tells “On Balance” that Harris’ other choices are all pro-Israel, but Shapiro, a Jew, is unacceptable to influential Democrats.

Josh Shapiro is Jewish, not Israeli. The left is always saying being anti Israel is not anti semitic. So…. What happened

[stubronstein]

Jews voting for the left is as crazy as the proverbial turkey voting for Christmas.

[joebagodonuts]

Why would Shapiro agree to be Kamala’s VP?

[joebagodonuts]

10+ million freeloaders living in hotels and schools, free welfare, free health care, free schooling, debt cards is a DOMESTIC ISSUE.

That impacts inflation, too.

[Eged]

For crying out load! 80 democrats were “missing in action” during Netanyahu speech. That just says it all!!!

[stonemarkstudios]

Im not jewish and i'm most likey vote in for RFK jr. That said i will only say this. If she dont pick Josh then
Harris caved to the people who burned the american flag 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇮🇱 this is our home left right center were Americans.

And if you can't stand up for whats right then step side & get of the way 🇺🇸 leave our flag up.

Why do we continue to be surprised? It's the oldest hatred.

[howardtennenhouse]

She didn’t answer his question that I have been asking:Why would Shapiro want to run with Harris? He should not even agree to be in the running and publicly announce he won’t ally himself with her

[PaulChristianJenkinsJD]

Batya Ungar-SAURON. Frankly, it's no surprise that she works for Newsweek.

[lisac.]

I can only speak for myself. If she was to say before presidency she was against Biden border policy I would not believe her . Clearly political game to get votes. At this stage of the game it is too late to say I would like to rescind my previous believes on such a Serious matter regarding the border. I CAN'T imagine anyone falling for such a 360 degree turn.

Josh Shapiro supports school vouchers, which is a vastly different position from say that of Tim Walz who was a public school teacher. But sure it has gotta be anti-semitism every time.

[charleskatz]

What BS.Harris.will pick whookever will put ger ocer yhe top..If Americans support Israel at a rate of 75-80%in polls picking Shapiro would give her a chance to say to these protesting kids, ,'grow up" or get Trump

[kreemothedreamo]

She doesn’t have an annoying voice…not at all 🙄

[sergeboudreault]

Leland Vittert left FoxNews. Now, he works at FoxNation.

[rickmartin]

Trying to paint Kamala Harris as an antisemite is going to be somewhat difficult in view of her husband being Jewish. Maybe not the best strategy for Trumpistan going forward.

[stephenbailey]

If Shapiro indeed covered up sexual harassment, then he shouldn't be the pick. If not, then let it be made known.
This should be the case no matter his background.
Let Trump and the GOP be the party of abuse and indecency.

[sarahwilliams]

True, if it happens not because he's not good but because of vote getting

[Gatis_]

Both parties have anti semites in them (sadly) 😢

[endcorruptio]

Josh shapiro is not the obvious choice. That is silly talk

[sometimesfloats]

Trump's policies are good. The majority of the people like them. If the democrats can change their candidate (which they did), the republicans can do that too. If they indeed change their ticket, the republicans will almost surely win the general election. Republicans, let's make this year's general election more interesting, our country stronger, and our people more prosperous!
