Pennsylvania Gov. Shapiro cancels Hamptons trip, days before expected Harris VP reveal
CNBC ^ | Aug 1 2024 | Brian Schwartz

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro has canceled a trip to the ritzy New York beach enclave of the Hamptons, as he is being considered to be Vice President Kamala Harris’ running mate, according to a person with direct knowledge of the matter.

Shapiro was supposed to go to at least two events in the Hamptons, including a meet and greet with wealthy donors at the home of public relations executive Mike Kempner.

“The Governor’s trip was planned several weeks ago and included several fundraisers for his own campaign committee,” Shapiro spokesman Manuel Bonder confirmed to NBC News. “His schedule has changed and he is no longer traveling to the Hamptons this weekend.

What a miserable ticket that would be. Two former Attorneys General with minimal political experience. All machine politics, no personality.

They lie about it but the left doesn’t want a Jew VP.

Not popular enough to swing PA to blue, it’s going to take massive cheating as in the past.

If Shapiro’s the VP candidate, even more Arab-Americans will flock from the Hyena to Jill Stein.

They’ll pick him so as to pretend to not be the party of antisemitism.

That’s what would strike me as odd: you are throwing away any chance at the Muslim vote in Michigan. They won’t vote for a Jew. He may guarantee PA, but it could cost them MI.

Despite all the gushing talk of winning the election with Kamaltoe from Democrats and their media minions... All the powerful Dems... The ones who will select the 2028 nominee for President... Know that Kamaltoe doesn’t stand a chance and even if it does look like she’ll win, they will destroy her before that happens. She’s a lamb to the slaughter... Jews are abandoning the Democrat party in droves and selecting a Jew to walk hand in had with Kamaltoe into electoral college oblivion, will likely return them to the fold. They will need the Jewish vote in the 2028 election.

Well electoral math. 15 for MI vs 19 for PA. It could make the difference depending on how they read the map. Or it could make nothing at all and they lose both states. Or he may not even get the nod and just canceled his trip to play the game (mystery, news cycles for the party) or just some vetting even if he doesn’t ultimately get the slot. Maybe another role like AG though I don’t think that’s a promotion for a politician governor.

Jewish money, media and votes provide tremendous support for the democrat party. The democrat party is synonymous with the left. So, I don't believe the left power brokers, many of which are Jewish, are opposed to a Jewish VP. In fact, just the opposite. In addition, Shapiro is governor of a swing state (PA) and as such, he is the head of the democrat party in PA. I.e., He is in a position to supercharge voter fraud in PA and give Harris and incumbent Senator Casey Jr. easy wins.

No one should be surprised when Harris picks Shapiro as her VP.

I understand. But the implication of not wanting to vote for Shapiro (who probably has similar anti-Israel views as Stein; I do not know) was that they would be mad that Shapiro is Jewish.

Or does he espouse authentic pro-Israel views?

Shapiro, Festerman, Harris et al are all Deep State.

They will do as they’re told.

That's why they need a crook like Shapiro, the guy behind the 2020 Big Steal in PA, with some RINO complicity.
