The war in Ukraine – and in particular, the Republican Party’s increasing [1] willingness [2] influence [3] to let [4] Vladimir [5] Purin [6] win it [7] – had its first major domestic political consequence (The Keystone [8]).
Members of Pennsylvania’s Polish community penned a letter endorsing Kamala Harris after Harris, at the debate [9] earlier this month, warned that Donald Trump would allow Russia to invade Poland once the war in Ukraine is finished under a Trump administration [10].
“Vice President Harris has a long, strong track record of protecting our democracy here at home and standing up for our brothers, sisters, parents and grandparents in Poland – the same people Vladimir Putin hopes to attack next if Ukraine were to fall,” the letter read.
Polish-Americans know better than to treat Russia with kid gloves. In looking for a candidate that understands that reality, they noticed the same thing I did [11].
Vice President Harris is literally the only candidate (major or well-known minor) that supports NATO and Ukraine’s fight to defend itself [12]. That’s it. That’s the list. For that reason, I do endorse and will vote for her for president.
There are 800,000 Pennsylvanians of Polish descent. We will see what impact they have over the next six weeks.
