That’s not what I’m saying. I’m saying that there are conservative democrats who prefer more conservative democrats over progressive anyone, and there are conservative republicans who don’t want to vote for Trump but wouldn’t vote for any progressives either. The work that demonstrates that is every single democratic primaries, and all the conservative ones.
Also, I am explicitly not advocating for moving to the right, if you need me to spell it out. I don’t think it’s a good decision morally, and I don’t think it’s a good decision politically.
What I’m advocating for, is for progressives to participate in democracy, and not wait for democracy to happen to them. Conservatives vote more than progressives. Democratic party consistently interprets it as a call to move to the right, that’s how democracy works. That’s bad. The only way to fix that is to outvote conservatives.
They do, demonstrably. Conservatives from conservative party, conservatives from democratic party, all of them do.
Then show your work. How many conservatives preferred harris over trump? Which of harris’ actions brought them in?
Hint: Zero. It’s fucking zero. You’re advocating moving to the right because you want to move to the right and no other reason at all.
