    how so? I see nothing to indicate that she shifted right, just that her campaign is pushing for the moderate voters, both on dem and republican sides, which is absolutely a good strategy.

        she’s appealing to moderates, the perceived “right wing appeals” is just a policy based ripped straight from the ages of republican rhetoric that no longer exist, none of those are antithetical to the democrats in anyway, they’re all super relevant, it’s just dramatic irony.

        Harris herself is pretty far left, tim walz is from minnesota, politically left.

          She has the same views as Biden and Pelosi. If you think that’s pretty far left have you ever heard of Bernie Sanders or anyone who would actually vote for m4a, decriminalizing immigration, or putting an arms embargo in Israel?

            bro she was in cali previously to this. Cali is a pretty regularly dem state, one of the more dem leaning ones in the entire country.

            Obviously bernie is farther left, but we’re getting into the territory of literal communists and socialists at that point.

                broaden my horizons to what? Candidates that i don’t fundamentally align with? They exist, they’re out there. It’s not what i want though.

                And to be clear, calling the harris campaign right leaning is only feeding more into republicans who think all democrats are communist pigs vying for power over other people.
