In a general election it could also cause Democrats to stay home. You know that can happen, right? Harris needs to reassure Democrats that she won’t govern like a cop and appealing to mythical Independents at the cost of her base is a bad move.
I’m happy to vote for a chance at ending the genocide. I suspect she probably won’t but I’m willing to vote for a chance.
But if she gets deep into law and order shit then there are going to be people who see it and assume she’s basically just a moderate Republican, and they won’t care about taking that chance. Calling me cringe doesn’t change that.
Honey, I didn’t call you cringe. You said “I cringe,” and I said, “vote, even if you cringe.” I cringed when I voted for Biden. Both times. But he did better than I expected for 4 years, and Trump did worse than I thought for his 4 and beyond.
We have to keep supporting whatever power structures stand in the way of those who choose their worst instincts over everyone’s best interests. I have confidence Kamala will “ovary up” to do that.
