Trump’s counterterrorism adviser Olivia Troye and former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan both urged Republicans to vote for Kamala Harris Wednesday night.
You, like oh so many people, are incorrectly and harmfully putting social progress on the same axis as economic progress, when it is its own axis. And there's no logical debate that can be had about the social (or Z) axis; one side is bigotry, the other is acceptance. The fact that we tolerate the mere existence of any bigoted politician is a monumental failure of our society, let alone that we allow an entire wing use bigotry as their identity.
When it comes to the X axis of politics, one wing is capitalism, the other communism. This is the only left vs right comparison that should matter; capitalism with a rainbow sticker is still right wing.
And both of them don’t do any of that. Maybe small instances on the dems’ side but really you’re fooling yourself if you think the Democratic Party is anything but a center-right corporate mouthpiece.

democrats expanded voting rights
democrats expanded civil rights
democrats expanded worker rights

I mean, you got a point, but as citizen of Czech Republic, they don't seem to do enough, and U.S. politics really feels like "right" and "more right".
You guys need to fix your voting system. (I know it's easier said than done, my country is about 5th of the age of U.S. Advantage of starting later is a real thing.)
It'd be nice if we had any healthy opposition. Instead of a party of tantrum throwers and a party of "if we compromise with fascists, they'll eventually be satisfied."
It shows that there's a diverse party of people that are trying to lead America into the future and a party that only has a plan to rule America into the ground.
Obviously Republicans that aren't willing to sell out their country for a chance to kiss the ring are looking for some way to distinguish themselves from their treasonous brethren.
