Another Democratic operative close to Harrisworld says they sent memos and data to Harris campaign staffers underscoring how, among other things, Republican voters, believe it or not, vote Republican — and that the data over the past year screamed that Democrats instead needed to reassure and energize the liberal base and Dem-leaning working class in battleground states. “We were told, basically, to get lost, no thank you,” says the operative.

lmao

    sent this to one of the neighbors I’m trying to radicalize

    he first responded to just the headline by saying, “but doesn’t it seem like a good idea to try to win over any Republicans we can?” 😂

    sent him the part you quoted, and then a moment later

    dude, even Bill Fuckin Kristol was telling them to reconsider!

    Interestingly, Bill Kristol, a top Never Trump Republican, publicly urged Harris in the final weeks of the campaign to pitch a progressive, populist economic message against Trump and his army of billionaire supporters.

    In late October, he wrote on X: “Feels like maybe Kamala Harris should embrace Elizabeth Warren’s Ultra-Millionaire Tax and barnstorm on that for the next ten days.”

    he is now just saying he’s very tired and can’t talk anymore tonight and has sworn off watching news for a while.

    !!! somebody tell me what to send him tomorrow. need some hopeful stuff that isn’t too obviously commie because he will reject it. not too long, either – he is retired but he has ADHD.

    other cool neighbor is gonna be busy at work all weekend, but I’ll pester her Monday
