Right, GOP = extreme right but Dems = republicans.
Wrong. Dems are not Repubs. The right has moved extremely further right and the left is only slightly more left actually. The Dems have a bigger tent now. Even Bernie and AOC are on board. When you have AOC and Dick Cheney under the same tent, you are serious about defeating some crazy shit.
Both have moved right.
Current Dems are celebrating Republican lite policies as their big wins.
If you'll revisit my comment, you'll see that I said:
Modern repubs are lunatic far-right nuts. Modern dems have the policies of Reagan-era repubs.
