Lmfao, how many conservatives does it take to endorse the “progressive” before the “blue no matter who” crowd realise they’re not voting “blue” at all, and worse, that “blue” is and always has been a fiction created to shift the Overton window constantly to the right and manufacture consent by and for whatever it is those in power are actually interested in?
Have you listened to any of these Republicans who have endorsed her talk? They all think she’s wayyyy too progressive for them during normal times, they’re not endorsing Harris because she’s somehow a conservative now, they’re endorsing Harris because their party got taken over by fascists and they’re rare spine-filled conservatives.
You’re really not making the point you think you are.
Their words don’t matter (seriously, people are now going to convince themselves that conservatives have even a smidge of integrity, honesty, or a single non-self serving bone in their body, to make this work? smfh), their actions do, and their actions are to support a candidate that serves their interests best, and anyone serving their interests best (E: only because the other person is saying the quiet parts of their ideology out loud and getting in their way, and absolutely not because they disagree with said ideology), isn’t serving yours, at all.
You can try to maintain your cognitive dissonance at whatever cost you wish, but that won’t change reality. ¯\(ツ)/¯
Believe it or not, conservatives aren’t lying 24/7, they actually believe the things they say. That goes for both Pro-Trump and Anti-Trump conservatives.
If you were actually engaging in good faith political analysis, you’d see Harris is significantly more left wing than McCain or Romney.
We have to beat the Republican because beating the Republican comes first. Then we need to get a veto-proof majority so that our Democrat president doesn’t veto the legislation written by our Democrats in Congress. Finally, we need to elect a fully liberal SCOTUS.
Only then can we talk about lowering the enrollment age for Medicare by three years. Only then can we talk about raising the minimum wage by $1. Only then can we talk about establishing a student loan debt forgiveness program for Pell Grant recipients who start a business that operates for three years in disadvantaged communities.
So, like to so many other posters like this, I pose the question:
What is the alternative?
There are 49 Jocks led by a narcissistic jerk of a cheerleader in our school, and they have promised to close the book club and the game club, and make it easier for the jocks to abuse the Nerds, and the only thing between them and that is us 51 Nerds. When the SGA elections happen, the person with the most votes wins, and if that means 49 Jocks to 48 Nerds to 3 Nerds that bought the bullshit and voted third party or stayed home, it’s a 49 to 48 win for the Jocks and we 51 Nerds will just have to make do without Book and Game club. Is this person seriously advocating voting third party or staying home because Team Blue is too purple for their tastes? That’s a good way to get Project 2025 up the back entrance, sideways, without lube or dinner. A reminder to everyone else who might be swayed by this individual. There’s a reason why they are net -50 on votes right now and have 65 downvotes, and it’s not groupthink.

What a fucking joke, seriously…

Which still maker her center right. But better than the far right.
Lol no, she and the party are center left, they would not be fighting for unions and universal healthcare otherwise.
