This might be the most surreal Kamala Harris endorsement yet

The news headlines recently have been rife with a number of prominent Republicans who came out swinging in support of Kamala Harris – particularly with the news that former Vice President Dick Cheney and former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales are both casting their votes for the vice president.

This has led some people – not all Trumpers – to accuse the Harris campaign of taking a centrist direction – even though it really means that Donald Trump is so reckless and destructive as a political candidate, he’s actually caused people as divergent in their views as Dick Cheney and Alexandria Ocasio Cortez to find common ground and unite against him. The way to win elections, of course, is to build consensus among a coalition of voters that don’t readily agree on every issue but share in a larger vision of how the country will be run.

On Monday, however, Vice President Harris picked up another significant endorsement from one of America’s oldest publications, one that has only endorsed two political candidates in its 179-year history: Scientific American. The magazine that has avoided taking sides politically, cited both Donald Trump’s catastrophic environmental record and his denial of climate change, while choosing to endorse both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for president after citing their records on not just the environment – IRA tax credits for green energy, while using emissions standards to curb air pollution – but also the Biden-Harris administration’s expansion of Medicare that has saved lives, and their efforts to enact gun control legislation.

It’s a solid endorsement that cites a lot of the progressive legislation we’ve seen over the last three and a half years – and the only way to ensure this progress continues is to get Kamala Harris elected on Nov 5 with a Democratic trifecta. Let’s run up the score and make sure she wins!
