Name Two

Republicans for Harris are saying that no matter their policy disagreements, they can't let Trump win.

A lot of leftists are saying that unless Harris aligns with them in specific ways, they will let Trump win even though they disagree with him on everything.

1/x

3/x you can't complain (falsely) about the Democratic Party shifting right (which it isn't, but that's for a different thread) while at the very same time doing everything you can to cede whatever battle you think is occurring for the Party's soul to actual Republicans.

5/x Do you really think the reaction from inside the party is going to be "well, we now have no choice but to do what the leftists say. Jacobin, please appoint the next DNC Chair." Of course that's not going to happen.

7/7 I'm not sure how you get that trust back. Not sure you ever do. But advocating against Harris now is pretty much the last straw for a lot of people, even those with progressive policy outlooks.

I don't think “normie Dem voters” give a wet snap about this issue, because I don’t believe it’s really an issue. Maybe in Michigan, where I keep hearing Palestinian Americans are mad at Biden/Harris, but that’s their beef and none of my own. Who are the rest of these Susan Sarandons? Even Jane Fonda is supporting Harris because Trump is so dangerous. Bernie Sandertwas in San Antonio this week to rally for Harris. AOC supports Harris. Rep. Tlaib may not support the VP for POTUS, but how many states does she sway?

Which is kind of acknowledged in the last sentence, there. But who is this thread talking to? More importantly, who is it talking about? Because I think there’s more MAGA in the GOP, than there are “never Harris” voters among the Democrats.

I’ll really be glad when this election is over. 😅
