    Which is evidence of good strategy

    Idk, if the goal is more progressive governance I don’t think welcoming conservative perspectives is a good strategy.

    If the goal is simply to win… sure. But still a cynical turn away from the left. Maybe they should have asked if she planned on appointing any progressive or pro-palestinian people on her cabinet, that’s a question I’d be curious to hear her response to.

      She doesn’t have to welcome conservative perspectives.

      She has to make conservatives think she will welcome conservative perspectives. And she can do this for free by pointing out that there will likely be a Republican in her cabinet.

        She doesn’t have to welcome conservative perspectives.

        Well then why is she doing it, then? If cracking down on immigration and strengthening the military aren’t conservative perspectives I’m not sure what they are because they certainly aren’t from the left.
