Democrats are currently focused on the fight against Donald Trump. But quietly, factions within the party are preparing contingency plans for a different battle: the one over how to interpret a Kamala Harris loss.
Polls of the 2024 election show the closest presidential race in modern memory. For Harris, defeat is roughly as likely as victory. The former outcome is sure to trigger a fierce, intra-Democratic debate over what the party should learn from losing the White House (twice) to an unpopular demagogue
If Harris loses, expect Democrats to move right With 15 days left, we need your help
The US presidential campaign is in its final weeks and we’re dedicated to helping you understand the stakes. In this election cycle, it’s more important than ever to provide context beyond the headlines. But in-depth reporting is costly, so to continue this vital work, we have an ambitious goal to add 5,000 new members.
If Harris loses, expect Democrats to move right
Even though Harris is running as a moderate, progressives are likely to get blamed for her defeat.

It reminds me of how they still push communism because all the failed attempts of communism “weren’t done correctly”.
They will absolutely double-down on stupid.
Qwick-cur-eck strikes again on my phone.
If Trump cleans up our election system and roots out most of the deep state bureaucracy in Washington, the Democrats will either move to the right or die. The choice will be theirs. We’re witnessing an electoral re-alignment, the magnitude of which occurs only about once or twice a century. A successful Trump Presidency and even just a little bit of accountability and exposure of Democratic corruption and treason will devastate their already failing brand.
No way. They’re not capable of it. The Democrat party is completely beholden to their rich suburban virtue signalling base.
Not the Bee? LOL And no, the Dems will not move Right, they will move further left.
Yep. All of that and more. It’s the “more” that we don’t know about and haven’t planned for that worries me.
Harris as President of the Senate could refuse to certify the election. Then what?
They will double down and become more communist.
If Harris loses, expect riots.
Or they'll go with a dark horse - somebody like Roy Cooper.
“If the Dems lose they will not move right, the base won’t allow it. My guess is, if they lose they will double down on communism.”
You got it. The Pol Pot style communists control the Democrat party now. They will blame the “moderates’ and go further left.
