Republicans Coming Out for Harris, But What Does this Mean?

Over the past couple of months, we’ve seen hundreds of top Republicans come forward and say essentially what Mesa, Arizona mayor John Giles said here: it would be a huge mistake to re-elect Donald Trump, given his moral failings and mental health issues.

The question, of course, is what this means to the MAGA base.  Mesa is the third most populous city in the state, and its people are generally well educated, thus it’s going to go for Harris anyway.  But suppose you live in a rural part of the state and the nearest college graduate is 50 miles away.  Are you going to change your position based on what some sissified city liberal says?
