Vice PresidentĀ Kamala Harrisā campaign on Sunday is launching āRepublicans for Harrisā as she looks to win over Republican voters put off byĀ Donald Trumpās candidacy.
The program will be a ācampaign within a campaign,ā according to Harrisā team, using well-known Republicans to activate their networks, with a particular emphasis on primary voters who backed former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley. The program will kick off with events this week in Arizona, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. Republicans backing Harris will also appear at rallies with the vice president and her soon-to-be-named running mate this coming week, the campaign said.
The Harris campaign shared the details of the program first with The Associated Press before the official announcement.
They always do this shit, appeal to the right while shitting on their own. In the meantime they shift the entire party to the right
Maybe they think appealing to those already committed to voting for you while rejecting those on the fence is a shitty strategy.
The problem is that the Democrats get so obsessed with chasing, āmoderate,ā Republicans that they lose their own base to low enthusiasm and low turnout. Remember what Chuck Schumer said:
He said that in 2016, and predicted that not only would Hillary Clinton win, but that the Democrats would retake the Senate. Turns out that was a spectacularly bad prediction. The candidate swap has generated a lot of enthusiasm for Kamala among the Democratic base. They shouldnāt squander it trying to appeal to conservatives.
They can do that without shitting on their own.
