    Useful how? Harris was wrong to spend so many resources trying to attract Republicans that she thought could be swayed away from Trump. She converted very few voters, and lost a lot of voters on the left. Why should we repeat that same mistake?

    Using MTG aligns you with an antisemite, and if it attracts anyone to your cause, it will be more antisemites.

      Not trying to attract them. To spread apathy. We need to point out that even his craziest supporters can see through him. The only ones not speaking out are the ones benefiting from it.

      If they don’t want to support a candidate on the left, that’s fine. We need to just make them not vote. The right has trolls constantly saying people shouldn’t vote for any Democrat candidate, no matter how closely they align with their views. Even AOC isn’t enough seemingly. We need to be willing to spread the same apathy to them.
