    I think “showing daylight” is a metaphor for there being space between two things or ideas. So in a sense her and Biden’s views on Israel are not conjoined, hence “daylight” can be seen between them, like slats in a fence.

      This makes sense thanks for the explanation 🙏 - also realised that the phrasing of the headline tripped me up. It says Harris shows daylight ‘with’ Biden which i think is completely the wrong word to use there, but i suppose they had written themselves into a corner by insisting on starting the sentence with ‘Harris’
