Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D) “is leaning into his support for Israel as the war in Iran escalates and as speculation about a potential 2028 presidential run grows,” The Hill reports.
“Shapiro is betting that there’s still room in his party for a more nuanced approach and that Democratic voters — as the governor runs for reelection this year and tests the waters for a potential White House bid — have an appetite for a measured leader with a centrist view on Israel.”
