The fact that he’s Jewish isn’t what disqualifies him. It’s the support of Israel, and the implied support of Israel’s policies and actions.

To be clear, Israel doesn’t have a right to exist. No country has such a “right”. Continued existence is based on the will of people. But if Shapiro could learn to understand what most of the rest of the world is seeing with their own eyes, the sky would be the limit.


Well, the will of Israelis—that is, the people who live in Israel—is to continue to exist.


Cool. The calculus doesn’t merely involve their own will, though. Tough break.


Actually, the tough break for haters of Israel is that Israel is still there. The Israelis will to survive against those who wish to see them destroyed has proven to be too much for its enemies.


Enemies? Always so dramatic …

You don’t need a country to survive. Those that oppose Israel’s policies and actions are not trying to destroy you personally or even Israel, necessarily.

But keep up with the victim complex - without that, what would you have?


I have no idea what you are trying to say.


And? I don’t have the time or the patience to upgrade your reading comprehension skills, so either improve yourself or continue to live in ignorance.

Nope. Still no clue.

In the entertainment industry, we would say Shapiro's Q score is pretty low.

Since in the American political system, voters are not all equal--if the rich folks on DCUM want Shapiro like they wanted Hillary, then the Dems are doomed when it comes to Executive branch outcomes.

Shapiro is radioactive because he blindly, unconditionally supports Israel’s policies and actions, not because he’s Jewish.

It’s the exact same reason that non-Jews in our government like John Fetterman, Lindsey Graham, and Marco Rubio are radioactive.

Ironically, Shapiro can unlock an easier pathway to rehabilitating his image than the latter three bozos. If he pivots and denounces Israel’s policies and actions, demanding reform, the goodwill created may very well buoy his political aspirations. Nothing the latter three can do to recover from their current status as corrupt losers.

Didn’t Harris go to Philadelphia to announce her VP pick? And most of us assumed it was going to Shapiro.

He’s smearing his diaper all over his future with his book because poor Josh Shapiro evidently effed up his political ambitions all on his own during the vetting and final meetings with the Harris campaign. Oh well! I guess his burn book is consolation enough.

The “whole country”? Do you have a cite for that?

Nutjobs like the PP always think their radical views are shared by everyone else.

DP. Guess you do not follow US politics. The right, center, independents and left all hate Israel each for different reasons. They all in the strongest term wants to end the US relationship with Israel.

I will never vote for someone who served and assisted another military and not the USA military. Frack him


He took the IDF oath
I swear and commit to maintain allegiance to the State of Israel, its laws, and its authorities, to accept upon myself unconditionally the discipline of the Israel Defense Forces, to obey all the orders and instructions given by authorized commanders, and to devote all my energies, and even sacrifice my life, for the protection of the homeland and the liberty of Israel.”

Let’s flip this. What if Mandami served in the Pakistani army. Would you think it so outrageous that he would be asked if he was an agent of a foreign government?

That is patently untrue. He took no oath and did not serve in the IDF. He volunteered on a base doing service work while in high school. You are a frequent anti Israel poster on this site and speak in your own echo chamber. And whinging? Not an American expression. Weird.

Do you seriously believe there’s one poster on this site that objects to Israel’s policies and actions?!

He’s a good governor.

But Dems won’t vote for him because he’s a Jew.

Republicans won’t vote for him for the same reason.

I'm curious, can you expand a little on the different reasons?

Shapiro should just convert to a Republican cause that's what he is and the party that fits and welcome him

Yes I am surprised he has not asked for ICE and the US military to come to Pa and save him from the antisemitics. He could rounding up all the anti Israelis and taking their property. Then declare them all Hamas terrorists.
