38. Pretty sure they're not trying to get on our bus.

After all the name of the group is Republicans for Harris.

I for one am very happy to know that there are Republicans who clearly see the danger of Trump and are willing to band together to help bring him down; in fact, I consider this pretty awesome news. We need all the help we can get to smash that big orange bug once and for all.

These people are obviously not trying to join our side on anything else, but if any of them did decide to leave the Republican Party and become Democrats, I would welcome them with open arms. I think it would be silly not to.
