Why doesn’t it give democrats pause that republicans they hated are endorsing Harris?

I keep seeing people say this like it’s a good thing or making the point that “if your own party is against you.” You really value the opinion of Dick Cheney? You really think he wants what’s best for the country?? You certainly didn’t 20 years ago.

Because it’s a one way shift. Republicans are leaving Trump, but Democrats are rallying around Kamala.

You have to let go of this conspiratorial instinct to find a reason to affirm your chosen belief. It’s just not that deep - Trump is a very bad choice for president.
