Dems' potential 2028 hopefuls come out against US strikes on Iran
Every delay has consequences.
Some of the top rumored Democratic potential candidates for president in 2028 are showing a united front in opposing U.S. strikes on Iran, with several high-profile figures accusing President Donald Trump of launching an unnecessary and unconstitutional war.
Former Vice President Kamala Harris said Trump was "dragging the United States into a war the American people do not want."
"Let me be clear: I am opposed to a regime-change war in Iran, and our troops are being put in harm’s way for the sake of Trump’s war of choice," Harris said in a statement Saturday following the joint U.S. and Israeli strikes throughout Iran.
"This is a dangerous and unnecessary gamble with American lives that also jeopardizes stability in the region and our standing in the world," she continued. "What we are witnessing is not strength. It is recklessness dressed up as resolve."
FROM HOSTAGE CRISIS TO ASSASSINATION PLOTS: IRAN’S NEAR HALF-CENTURY WAR ON AMERICANS
California Gov. Gavin Newsom delivered some of his sharpest criticism during a book tour stop Saturday night in San Francisco, accusing Trump of manufacturing a crisis.
"It stems from weakness masquerading as strength," Newsom said. "He lied to you. So reckless is the only way to describe this."
"He didn’t describe to the American people what the endgame is here," Newsom added. "There wasn’t one. He manufactured it."
Newsom is currently promoting his memoir, "Young Man in a Hurry," with recent and upcoming stops in South Carolina, New Hampshire and Nevada — three key early voting states in the Democratic presidential calendar.
Earlier in the day, Newsom said Iran’s "corrupt and repressive" regime must never obtain nuclear weapons and that the "leadership of Iran must go."
"But that does not justify the President of the United States engaging in an illegal, dangerous war that will risk the lives of our American service members and our friends without justification to the American people," Newsom wrote on X.
California is home to more than half of the roughly 400,000 Iranian immigrants in the United States, including a large community in West Los Angeles often referred to as "Tehrangeles."
DEMOCRATS BUCK PARTY LEADERS TO DEFEND TRUMP'S 'DECISIVE ACTION' ON IRAN
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., a leading progressive voice and "Squad" member, accused Trump of dragging Americans into a conflict they did not support.
"The American people are once again dragged into a war they did not want by a president who does not care about the long-term consequences of his actions. This war is unlawful. It is unnecessary. And it …
