So, O Sage, why don’t you define “extremes” for the rest of us dolts.
Be glad too. Extreme means the furthest from the centre of a given point. But what extreme means to me politically in the Republican Party, is any candidate that is so far to the right, that they can not beat Hillary Clinton in the Presidential election. If Hillary wins the Presidential elecion it will be "extremely" (meaning severely or seriously) devastating for this country.
