    Maybe, but one thing that sets Harris apart from previous Democrats is her willingness to actually fight back against Republican bullshit. Plus there’s the fact that the GOP will be in a very rough place if Trump loses. They’re not a political party anymore, they’re a cult of personality, and that personality is 78 years old, will have lost two Presidential elections and is facing sentencing for 34 felony convictions with several more charges still in play. Their most recent primaries were all about trying to find someone to pass the MAGA torch to and they were completely unable to do so.

    The Republican Party’s future is very murky and that could lead to GOP Senators placing their own self-interest ahead of party solidarity. If Harris pushes against the red wall this could be the point where it finally breaks.

      If Harris wins, I could see the GOP fracture into 2 separate parties, with the more traditional conservatives forming a right center party that swings their votes on certain issues with the Dems and leaves the MAGAs on their own little isolated island of hate

        Impossible, they know that’s electoral suicide
