maybe they’re right, but I am not convinced that the Harris campaign pivoting from “look at these fuckin’ weirdos” to “I will create a bipartisan advisory council” as the race tightens is a good strategy a lot of these are the Biden people and I’m not inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt

I take it for granted it will be a complete failure on the merits, but even if it succeeds it guarantees that nothing will get better and in four years we'll be right back here again with nothing to show for four years in power, a coin toss away from the end of the republic. So yeah, it's very bad.

Why is the race even tightening?

They’re still doing both! They’re talking about Project 2025 in ads and every stump speech! There was one tweet that everyone went bananas over.

I don't think it will cost her any votes but it won't gain her any either. I'll never understand why *generations* of Democrats have felt the need to suck right wing dick so hard.

If she doesn't pull this out I'm blaming this strategy. The "get a load of these freaks" approach was working! Why change it now?

I really don't think that is the growth of voters that'll close the gap in needed voters in battleground states. They would have been better served talking to GenX & younger voters & specific economic issues. If they really nail down things like the #Eldercare Medicare policy, itll make difference.

I think they’re trying to speedrun the primary to general election pivot but I really hope they’ve got a shitload of data showing Republicans are flippable because it sucks.

It's every terrible idea at once and at light speed.

It's an unnecessary, unforced error that, if I were a betting man, I'd guess has something to do with the sizeable list of GOP endorsements she scored. Those don't typically happen without some kind of concession on the candidate's part.

Today I got a Harris youtube ad with the line "This election is about finances." and about lost my shit
