Even though Harris is running as a moderate, progressives are likely to get blamed for her defeat.

Given the state of the GOP, and who would be beating the “liberal” candidate, this makes a lot of sense. Probably some decent reading for anyone still thinking they just won’t vote because Harris isn’t progressive enough. She might not be your cup of tea, but I’m betting the other guy is way less so.

    If Harris loses, I don’t expect the Democratic Party to exists as a meaningful political presence in a couple years, because I anticipate aggressive and violent persecution of any and all people who don’t vociferously support Trump in any and all regards.

      I feel like your comment is the real reason. Why wouldn’t we believe the maga people even they say they want to arrest and execute? The left may not literally exist if certain people follow through on their rhetoric.
