The Demonic-rats have their own scale of left and right:
When you look at the new batch just elected, Nancy is a moderate.
Since the newbies are open about their socialism the Press will have a harder time projecting competence.
It’s a rapidly sliding scale and that fits perfectly with the party that sees no objective truth. There are no more Boys and Girls. All cultures are equally good (except for white males). There is no right or wrong. Everything is a shade of gray.
