Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign on Sunday is launching “Republicans for Harris” as she looks to win over Republican voters put off by Donald Trump’s candidacy.
The program will be a “campaign within a campaign,” according to Harris’ team, using well-known Republicans to activate their networks, with a particular emphasis on primary voters who backed former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley. The program will kick off with events this week in Arizona, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. Republicans backing Harris will also appear at rallies with the vice president and her soon-to-be-named running mate this coming week, the campaign said.
The Harris campaign shared the details of the program first with The Associated Press before the official announcement.
I’ll allow that you are a unicorn, but clearly folks are voting for the crazies, and I doubt many of them are doing so while also asking them to be less crazy.
A large number of Republicans are pissed at Trump but are begrudgingly going to vote for him.
Nearly my entire Republican social circle is ‘I don’t like Trump but …’
Which there is a degree of bullshit here no doubt. But at least some of them have to be telling the truth about their feelings.

The good news is that the ‘But…’ is 'But Hunter Bidens Laptop’s, or ‘But Hilary Clintons Emails’.
Very few are actually admitting to ‘But DEI hire’ or other Kamala attacks. Honestly, the Trump Campaigns insults are completely flat vs Kamala. Even amongst Republicans in my experience.
The thing about Republicans is that we are open about bluster vs closed door politics. You can’t necessarily pay attention to what people bluster openly.
