    Probably get hate for this around here, but it would be pants-on-head retarded for a political candidate to propose a major policy shift 3-weeks before a national election.

      And that’s ignoring the fact that Gaza is consistently polling at the bottom of issues that will sway voters

      Not really. Only Americans are so dense as to require several months to absorb something like that.

      The major-policy shift: Not supporting an apartheid state that’s killing thousands of innocent civilians.

      Lots of people said that about switching candidates just a few months before the election but they pulled that off fine. Abandoning a pro-genocide stance seems like a low bar in that regard.

      It’d be genius, if anything. Soon enough that people will know it and vote for her (the majority of Democrats support conditioning Israeli aid), too late for AIPAC’d propaganda machine to push the election towards Trump.
