The strategy of prominent Republicans flipping to vote for Harris is specifically designed to help Republicans win Congress.

WTF?? Not one single Republican made that calculation. Do you really think people like the Lincoln Project and George Conway are motivated by bizzarro shit??? That endorsing Harris will somehow magically help Republicans?? What you said is Democrats trying to outsmart themselves with convoluted nonsense. This is NOT a normal partisan election. This is a unique event in American history. Trump wants Americans to treat this as just another normal election. Don't play right into his hand. This is the greatest attack on democracy in American history. We need all hands on deck. We need everybody.

If Republican voters are demoralized by the prospect of Trump, a lot are going to just stay home and not vote at all. That would lead to a Democratic electoral sweep.

How the f*ck would conservative's support of Harris change any of that? This makes no sense.

Cheney, George Will and other Republican ghouls’ best option to avoid this is to give permission to their voting base to toss their Presidential vote to Harris, but also get them into the polls so they can be reliable Republican voters down the ticket and try to keep the House and take the Senate.

That is utterly nonsensical. NOBODY NEEDS PERMISSION to vote.

FFS, quit giving the enemy oxygen.

FUCK THAT 100%! This is the greatest attack on democracy in American history. We don't know if democracy will survive or not. We need all loyal Americans on our side. Loyal Americans who are conservative are NOT our enemies, they are our opponents. The neofascist movement are our enemies.

Get it through your head this is NOT a normal election of Democrats vs Republicans, this election is democrats vs neofascists. The outcome of this election will matter MUCH LONGER than a 2 year congressional term of office
