Very good point. They differed on policy but after hours they put the acrimony on the shelf. Neither side seems to be willing to do that any more and when they try they wind up wearing arrows in their backs shot from their own side.

I don’t think liberalism and core conservatism have changed all that much but the attitudes sure have.

Yes, "conservatism" is now something one is accused of by the socialist media, and "liberalism" which has changed its name to "progressivism" is now Communism. I for one have nothing to say to today's "liberals" who have more emotionally in common with National Socialists than classical liberals, and have no empathy or support for supposed Republicans who do.
