Lots of chatter about this, and about how this really isn’t a thing. This poll differs. And for the pundits (Gingrich and Watters) who decry the deception involved, a reminder: your insistence on honesty is a foil for implied or explicit compliance which is the whole reason.
42% of Harris-supporting-women who've been in a relationship say they've avoided sharing their political views with a partner’s family
14% have voted differently from a partner but didn’t tell them

I am in the process of leaving a toxic social media site where the owner posts untruths impulsively and obsesses over "the woke mind virus". Before I go I have a few things to say.

Thanks #Elon_Musk for taking a problematic but provocative and stimulating social media site and making it entirely septic. It’s not because I disagree with your politics (although I do) but I refuse to participate in what you have re-engineered: an anti-democratic apparatus.
Dear Democrats:
Many Americans (myself included) will be voting Democrat for the first time in our lives this November.
We’re not doing this because we agree with Democrats on policy; we’re doing it because we understand the need to stop Trump from destroying our Constitution.
If you see us non-Democrat Kamala supporters on Twitter espousing beliefs you disagree with, like on taxes or guns or whatever, try to let it go. Don’t be jerks. Don’t disparage and argue, expecting us to toe the Democrat line, because we won’t. We’re not Democrats. Being hostile to us will backfire and endanger our alliance.
We’ve made common cause with you in this election because our democracy faces an existential threat. We agree Trump is dangerous and we want to work with you to defeat him. Let’s be grateful for this mutual cooperation.
We can go back to arguing and being opponents after November. Until then, we have a country to save.
“We're not gonna stay in their frame... We're not gonna play their game. We're gonna call them out for the weird stuff they believe and we presented a different argument to the American public. One where everybody matters."

So JD now claims that his cat lady remark was just sarcasm. Such a tired walkback. We didn’t read it wrong. It was a scornful generalization that revealed a sketchy relationship with reality.

If you think that the Black woman got there because of her race and ethnicity, but the billionaire white guy with multiple bankruptcies who got $200 million from his old man pulled himself up by his bootstraps, you might be an idiot.
Count me as one who didn’t want this to happen. But Harris at the to the top of the ticket motivates by contrast. She embodies the underrepresented. Repubs now have to face the music on the age issue. And Biden voluntarily giving up power? The sharpest contrast of all.
Wow. Trae gets it wrong. Jon gets it wrong. Most of MSNBC jumped on the train too. Well I’m not riding the pundit class echo chamber train. And Brian is not riden’! Still #RidenWithBiden !
