American activist Jack Posobiec says Kamala Harris is already in a spot of bother upon taking up the Democratic presidential nomination.
Harris took the reins after 81-year-old incumbent president Joe Biden stepped aside and backed his vice president shortly after.
Speaking on GBN America, Posobiec says Harris needs to be concerned about Muslim voters turning their backs on the party over the Gaza war.
He says in Michigan, the perceived inaction on the war could cause the “floor to fall out” for their voter base in Michigan, he warned.

Posobiec believes Harris faces a 'huge problem'
“This represents a huge problem because of their own immigration policies”, he said.
“They have been bringing in Middle Easterners to Michigan and Minnesota. Minnesota has been a left-wing state since time in memorial in the US.

Joe Biden stepped aside for Harris
POOL“Michigan was predominantly a working class state which was something of a swing state but losing the liberal or left-wing part of their coalition of the Middle Easterners who have been imported is going to cause the floor to fall out for them.
“Democrat officials have been working very hard to keep Cornel West off the ballot in Michigan.”
Kamala Harris promised a “new way forward” as she accepted her party’s nomination in Chicago.
She promised to lead “for all Americans” and create an “opportunity economy” in the headline speech on the final night of the party convention.
Kamala Harris ReutersHarris also called for a ceasefire in Gaza, but did not address directly the protests taking place outside the convention over US support for Israel.
She added she would “always stand for Israel” while calling for Palestinian “self-determination”.
“I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself”, she said.
“I will always ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself, because the people of Israel must never again face the horror Hamas caused on October 7.”
Her Republican counterpart, Donald Trump, gave a running commentary on social media, saying: “Why didn’t she do something about the things of which she complains?”
Polls are deadlocked but the Democrats are enjoying a wave of new enthusiasm since Harris entered the spotlight.
