He is a symptom of a deep problem in the D party. They cannot win with trans rights, reparations, open borders, no free speech, electric car mandates, no fossil fuels or nuclear energy, Hamas terror support, and gestapo prosecution of political opponents etc.
But about half of the party is hard left on those issues. So if a D pretends to be moderate, they lose half the party. If a D won’t say what they will do (Kamala), they lose a lot of the middle. And if a D says what they really believe, landslide. About the best they can do is a wink wink moderate. Talk moderate but, wink wink, you lefties know what I really believe.
While that is happening, the R’s have moved hard to the middle. I call Trump a radical moderate.

Today Left and Right are subservient to the real split, Nationalist vs Globalist.
For example, I would classify someone like RFK Jr as a Left-Wing Nationalist, and Liz Cheney as a Right-Wing Globalist.
