Is it too early to start talking about the abysmal failure of the "Vote Blue No Matter Who" strategy?

Lets discuss the "we're really Republicans, so you Republicans should really vote Harris who will now ignore all leftists who intended to vote for her until they feel like shit and stay home instead of electing her!" strategy Harris tried to use just like Hillary tried to use that also entirely fucked up her voter base because the Dems DON'T want to vote for a Republican in disguise, and SHOCK the Republicans DO NOT CARE if you are 100% identical to their candidate, or ever MORE of a Republican than their candidate they are playing sport politics, they would elect a child molester, convicted felon, calling for ethnic cleansing, and removing all human rights of Women, they DON"T FUCKING CARE! They have no idea what politics, policy, or governance even is, they just want to WIN! Go RED Team!!

Note that the strategy of courting conservatives didn't move the needle even an inch. She got the exact same percentage of votes from registered republicans as Biden did, and it cost her millions of votes. And yet Democrats are already busy setting up the narrative how this is the fault of unelectable left-wing politics (lmao) and they need to move even further right. It's sickening.
