Will Linda Sarsour speak primetime at the 2020 Democratic National Convention?

[Suburbia]

Will Muslim-American and Palestinian activist Linda Sarsour speak at the 2020 Democratic National Convention? Should Sarsour speak at the the convention post-Trump/Jerusalem decision?

[Former Senator Haslam2020]

Please, keep her away.

[Mister Mets]

I think they'll realize she's too extreme, but you never know.

[Former Kentuckian]

Doubtful. If she does, it'll be a slot when they expect no one to watch. Her profile has risen due to the Women's March, but she's still fairly controversial.

[Statilius the Epicurean]

The DNC is pro-Israel so why would they do that?

[I’m not Stu]

No, that would make the party look bad.

[they don't love you like i love you]

Anyone who thinks this is possible clearly doesn't understand the DNC. Or that Chuck Schumer is a very influential Democrat.

[Mr. Morden]

Only if Gillibrand is the nominee:

[Sestak]

I hope not.

[Dr. MB]

Please, keep her away.

[America Needs R'hllor]

Anyone who thinks this is possible clearly doesn't understand the DNC. Or that Chuck Schumer is a very influential Democrat.

This, and this is why Chuck Schumer is a great person and why the Jewish-American lobby needs to find a heir for him who will keep the Democrats pro-Israeli.

[America's Sweetheart ❤/𝕿𝖍𝖊 𝕭𝖔𝖔𝖙𝖞 𝖂𝖆𝖗𝖗𝖎𝖔𝖗]

Nope, not a chance in hell.

[Rules for me, but not for thee]

That would be a good way to shoot themselves in both feet.

[Suburbia]

That would be a good way to shoot themselves in both feet.

Like Stephen K. Bannon speaking at the 2020 RNC, could alienate among independent voters.

[Sirius_]

Considering I didn't even know who this person was, no.

[JGibson]

If she does speak, I'd expect it to be around the early evening portions (pre-9PM EDT/8PM CDT hours).

[CookieDamage]

If they want someone who's Pro-Palestinian to speak, they'll find a very moderate person who's both Pro-Israeli and Pro-Palestinian. Not Linda Sarsour whose charges of Jew hate would make the party look bad and look like an extremist choice.

in fact, ignoring the issue entirely would be better. If they didn't want to ignore the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, they could also choose someone neither Israeli/Jewish or Arab/Palestinian and just incorporate it into a speech critical of Trump in general.

[Stand With Israel. Crush Hamas]

At this point, I think the moderates will get swamped and she and a lot of other unsavory elements will be forced in.

Same for the GOP, except this is already happening and rapidly.

[All Along The Watchtower]

Dumb thread is dumb

[RussFeingoldWasRobbed]

I hope not. What a nutcase

[Medal506]

That would be the exact same thing as David Duke speaking at the 2020 Republican National Convention. Hell shes basically just a female David Duke. They're both Jew hating Nazis

[Wisconsin SC Race 2019]

At this rate, they'd have her and a Chamber of Commerce representative speak about the glories of Islam and Neoliberalism.

[Stand With Israel. Crush Hamas]

"Former intersectional activist" Linda Sarsour was a possibility. "Farrakhan supporter who cheers on her allies as they bash Jews" Linda Sarsour is not.

[Darthpi – Anti-Florida Activist]

No. Not even a remote possibility.
