“I have spent my career inviting diversity of opinion. I think it’s important to have people at the table when some of the most important decisions are being made that have different views, different experiences,” Harris said. “And I think it would be to the benefit of the American public to have a member of my Cabinet who was a Republican.”

Diversity of thought is very important.

Sure, Jan.

Putting a fascist in a position of power creates diversity of thought in the same way that polluting a river adds flavor to drinking water.

We can have diversity of thought without indulging fascists. Germany's been doing it for almost a century now.

Cabinet positions are advisory and have little actually power. And not everyone "who was a Republican" is a fascist.
