Hypocrisy is alive and well in the MAGA movement. You can count on anything they accuse someone else of being exactly what they're doing.

Wow, Trump said something I agree with, though I don't think Liz Cheney is crazy and I know how to spell her name
According to Rolling Stone::
A Democratic strategist says they warned key Harris surrogates and top-level officials at the Democratic National Committee that campaigning with Liz Cheney — and making the campaign’s closing argument about how many Republicans were supporting Harris — was highly unlikely to motivate any new swing voters, and risked dissuading already-despondent, infrequent Democratic voters who had supported Biden in 2020. The strategist says they also attempted to have big donors and battleground state party chairs convey the same argument to the Harris campaign.
Another Democratic operative close to Harrisworld says they sent memos and data to Harris campaign staffers underscoring how, among other things, Republican voters, believe it or not, vote Republican — and that the data over the past year screamed that Democrats instead needed to reassure and energize the liberal base and Dem-leaning working class in battleground states. “We were told, basically, to get lost, no thank you,” says the operative.

I agree with that, (possibly) give or take the definition of 'liberal base' in the Rolling Stone quote. However, there's something slightly depressing, after what is probably the biggest catastrophe the Dems have faced in recent decades, that the the sources for the story are all anonymous. Maybe they are concerned about their jobs/consultancies, maybe they are just falling back on their normal ways of dealing with the media. But If there was ever a time for open, honest and public debate, it's now.
