    My issue wasn’t with calling Trump a Nazi (I find that assessment correct), but calling them both Nazis. Yes, the rightward shift is concerning, but the false equivalence put up here understates Trump’s danger and heavily overstates Harris’s.

The only avenue for progressive change is with the Democratic Party, but only with enough voters demanding better representation
