Other leftists are going to portray this as bad but I don't see it as bad. Swing states are not swing states because they have a ton of progressives in them that sway elections. Swing states often have a huge number of people that are towards center, hence they **swing** between Dem and GOP votes.

The game Kamala has to play to win the Presidency (the only way we get ANY progressive agenda, by the way) is to win the Swing states. She doesn't do that by going further left. She does that by commandeering more of the center. That doesn't mean she can't do progressive things once President -- Biden went super hard to the center and still had the most progressive presidency of all time.

Leftists often let Perfect be the enemy of good and defeat their own agendas while pursuing political purity. Political purists get to feel good about themselves but they don't gain power to affect change and protect others.
