Totally fine, politicians change their views. The more concerning thing for me was this:
The Democratic nominee also revealed that she would name a Republican to serve in her Cabinet if elected
Why?!? The people give the president power by voting them into office, the president wields that power on our behalf. Now would not be the time to share our power with the party that doesn’t believe in democracy. I can’t think of any good reason to voluntarily give a cabinet post to the other side, bipartisanship is not the point here.
There were Republicans who spoke at the convention last week. She probably means Republicans like them, not MAGA ones.
Yeah, I don’t think she’d ever choose a maga nut, but as much as I respect Kinzinger and Cheney for standing up for democracy I do not want them in the cabinet. They still have wildly different political positions than Harris.
All this, minus the respect part. The only thing different between them and the MAGAs is they have the small amount of intelligence required to know that in the long term Trump is going to hold them back and diminish their own power. This does not change the fact that they have been, for decades of their adult lives now, members of a political party that’s been implicitly and explicitly traitorous bigoted and anti-science since at least the mid 1960s.
because Democrats and Republicans are bedmates out to enrich their own coffers
neither of the “two” parties is for the people
