The way Reagan and the neo-liberal last few decades shifted the Overton Window right is how we ended up with a fascist Trump.

If Reagan were running today, he'd have to run as a Democrat.

Listening to any political commercials anyone not "right" is "radical left"

It's insane. Joe Biden is a 1989 Republican. He could have been GHWB's VP with NO issues at all.

I know we’ve been through this before, but Bernie...the “radical”...is two ticks left of center.

What makes you think that?
And do you know that they insulted him just like they insult trump? If you’re a good conservative, you face ridicule. They made him out to be dumb & he clearly wasn’t. This was a guy who would crash communist parties & reason w/ ppl, & they’d leave the party b/c of him.
Also, Reagan was a Democrat at first.

What hard evidence proves this? Statistics can be bent.
The hard left ppl are intolerant toward everyone and everything that doesn’t agree with them. When democrats come 2 trump rallies, they are welcome w/ open arms. When Republicans talk to democrats, they get called stupid & racist & bigoted & the rest of all the meaningless insults. Even Muslims & gays & blacks are beginning to realize this.
Btw, ever heard of #WalkAway? It was started by a gay dude who voted for Clinton in 16. He says that discrimination against gays, blacks, Hispanics, etc. is nowhere to be found in the Republican Party, & that he found discrimination in all the stuff he was raised to believe. He says the Republican Party would love to have gays & blacks & Hispanics & etc. While i personally believe that being gay is not righteous and is completely wrong & worthy of repentance, I do not hate ppl 4 being that way, & have no problem talking 2 ppl who are gay. On that movement, though (#WalkAway) there are several ppl telling stories of why they left the democrat party. I never have been democrat, but much of my family is. Matter of fact, one of my relatives knows Joe Biden personally (i am not making that up). I c both sides of politics quite often. I simply find myself aligning w/ the right more, especially, since there’s a lot of behind-the-scenes corruption on the left. Both sides will have corruption, & sometimes trump’s mouth isn’t helpful, but i am beginning think the left is deliberately playing the country, & I’m not a conspiracy theorist.
Pax.

"While i personally believe that being gay is not righteous and is completely wrong & worthy of repentance, I do not hate ppl 4 being that way,". Well it sure sounds like it
