They already are. Present day Democrats have George W Bush era Republican vibes. The Overton Window has shifted far to the right. That ratchet effect always has liberals shifting to the right.

We can see how this is bad right. This is just like proof that the Dems today are what RONALD REAGAN was? Like ... this is a thing we can all see, and by Harris not publicly donouncing these endorsements along with Cheney's there is a problem... like an obviousl problem? we all see this right?

Dems in 1990 were what Reagan was.
