The really bad part is when you see how they react when people point out Kamala moving to the left would guarantee trump loses...

Moderates have been doing this since Bill Clinton 30+ years ago.

They always claim nothing else matters but beating Republicans, and use any excuse to move the party right. When voters complain the politician doesn't match the party, we get the above.

They'd rather trump win then progressives, so they point a gun at everyone's head and say it's our fault if they have to pull the trigger.

Hell, in 08 with Obama they did pull the trigger. PUMA movement had them voting R instead of Obama. It's just despite controlling the party, they are a statistically insignificant amount of voters.

A few months ago all these people called us trump supporters for making the (still true) statement that Kamala has a better chance than Biden, and they were all saying Kamala would be a terrible candidate and only Biden can win.

They'll say anything in the moment with no regards to what just came out of their mouths.
