Indeed. You would think the Democrats would go after independents and leftists/progressive voters instead of shifting to the right.
The right has moved so far to the right that the “independents” are the ones that used to be right. That’s why you’re seeing all these pre Trump Neo Cons supporting Harris. They’re trying to target people like my mom. People that don’t like Trump but are still “Republican”.
This whole godforsaken country has gone Nazi-curious, and you think going hard left is going to win the election? You gotta be kidding me.
I’m pretty heavily progressive myself, but you won’t see me complaining about Harris pulling people like Cheney into a coalition. That’s how you win.
You can be ideologically pure, or you can win, but you can’t do both.
Convince your fellow Americans to not be Nazi-curious any more. Only then can the Democrats shift left without getting annihilated.
It just isn’t as good of a political strategy to go after progressives, who the DNC knows overwhelmingly vote dem regardless. The number of leftists who won’t vote for the democrats just isn’t high enough for them to care, which unfortunately means they pivot towards moderates, independents, and moderate republicans in basically every election
Shit take, brah. This election is going to be decided by tens of thousands of votes from among fuckwits who refuse to see what’s plainly visible. Harris needs to get their votes, not the leftists. How many fucking leftists do you think live in suburban and rural districts in fucking Pennsyltucky?
Can’t tell if you’re dim or just stirring shit.
