This doesn't actually oppose their point that
"Business as usual" is right wing politics, even to the Democratic party at this point, which is supposed to be the left wing.
If you keep shifting right to pick up people like Cheney, eventually your policy will just be the same as Cheney and if anyone wants to go further right they have to go "just that insane" to seperate themselves because republicans are never going to shift left.
Harris will likely try to pass more left leaning goals, but she isn't going to fundamentally change the rules or change priorities based on the last conversation she had with someone. It's easier to be an opposition party than trying to control Trump.
