Kamala Harris's comments on the Iranian airstrikes seem unlikely to be as impulsive as they appear. It appears she, like others in her party, chose to condemn the attacks because she believes this is a war the American people oppose, and our troops are at risk.
Yes, the latter is correct, which is why we decided to launch the strikes. US officials stated yesterday that they had intelligence indicating a planned large-scale attack on military bases in the region by Iran.

Donald Trump is dragging the United States into a war the American people do not want. Let me be clear: I am opposed to a regime-change war in Iran, and our troops are being put in harm’s way for the sake of Trump’s war of choice.

Yet the funny thing is, it’s peak cheap-seats commentary. We all know Harris hates being put in a position where she must make a tough decision; it was a lingering issue from her shambolic 2024 campaign. So, for someone who can’t take the pressure and hates making these calls, what’s her use in this debate?
Also, someone like this makes for a very poor president.
Also, Kamala, the American people support the strikes.
