No. Don’t mistake “in between” for “center”.
What we’re seeing is the effect of the GOP becoming fully radicalized over the last 45 years.
The Democratic Party occupies the left, center, and center-right of the political spectrum. The GOP is still a canyon away from them. https://t.co/EwfP8Qi3HP— Vijay (@vijtable) March 6, 2018
Claiming that the middle of Democrats and Republicans is the “center” is like claiming that the middle ground between eating no live gerbils and eating two live gerbils is the “center”.
I’m not gonna eat a live gerbil, no matter what David Brooks says.— Matthew Chapman (@fawfulfan) March 6, 2018
