Harris Faces Criticism, Support as 2024 Nominee

Vice President Kamala Harris, now the presumptive Democratic nominee for the 2024 presidential election, faces criticism and support from various quarters. Former President Donald Trump accused her of being anti-Israel and not liking Jewish people, claims which her campaign refuted by highlighting her Jewish spouse, Doug Emhoff. House Speaker Mike Johnson criticized Harris for her handling of the border crisis, while traditional Catholic groups accused her of anti-Catholic bigotry. Harris, leveraging her background as a prosecutor, has positioned herself against Trump's criminal record. Despite mixed poll results, her campaign remains optimistic, emphasizing her stance on women's and family rights. Harris' recent interactions with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu also reflect her concerns over civilian casualties in Gaza and her call for a peace deal.
