That's a red herring and you know it. The DCCC obviously didn't oppose Meijer because they thought he would be an untrustworthy "moderate" but because they preferred to bet the farm on a Trumpist lunatic losing to a Democrat in the general election. That's not only dishonorable given their vaunted appeal to democratic ideals, it's political malpractice given the inevitable risks of any campaign. Perhaps the DCCC should donate to Donald Trump since of course he has no chance to defeat Joe Biden or Kamala Harris in a rematch.
Or maybe they just think that the difference between someone who votes to put a lunatic in charge of the House and someone who is a lunatic isn't actually different enough to warrant a distinction. For as bad as Gibbs is, at least he's honest with voters about who he is. Something Meijer can't say.
In that case they should have kept their dollars to themselves rather than waste them on a frivolous endeavor while betraying their own purported ideals.
Which ideals in particular? Because again, they don't agree with you that Meijer is some stalwart defender against Trumpism. And they have plenty of data points to back them up.
