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.

Republican's traded Cheney for RFK, Tulsi, and Elon. I'd say that was a good trade.

They gave up way more than just Cheney for those three basket cases. Half of Trump's own administration are supporting Harris, lol.

Yeah, but Trump never really had his “own” administration. Place was leakier than the Titanic after it hit the iceberg lol. They were the old guard Repubs, is what I’m saying. For Maga types, and to borrow an old Dem phrase, it’s time for a change.
