Of course it's impossible to say but I think Dems would have leaned super hard into the liberating women and the gays messaging angle. A healthy portion of the shitlibs who are at this moment very critical of the war would be yelling at people for not caring about women.

They wouldn't be as reckless with the bombing and would be smarter about pinning it all on Israel or "supporting" Israel's war. They of course would also not be as insane with the rhetoric.

In short they would do a better job at gaining consent for the war and doing a protracted campaign.

So her answer boils down to maybe. That isn't great, but at least it's more honest than Trump's "I'll never start any wars, I'm the peace candidate" schtick.

That's why she lost. She had unpopular positions, and she was really bad at being dishonest.

Absolutely, also the Iran War was an inevitable escalation from Israel for not facing any consequences for the Gaza Genocide, which Kamala and Biden allowed to rage on unabated throughout their terms.
