However, Phil Gordon, Harris’s national security adviser, reiterated her opposition to an arms embargo in a Thursday post on the social platform X.

After she’s in office, she can have an “epiphany,” her thinking can “evolve,” and she can do a 180. The MSM will love it.

To be “unburdened by the past” is the goal of every con man in history.
