"As we plunge headlong into another catastrophic war, Sen. Schumer and Rep. Jeffries’ throat-clearing and process critique only serves Trump and the war machine."
The best Democratic leadership Israeli money can buy.
This may come as a shock to you, but things like universal healthcare aren’t far left policies in normal countries.
Liberals in the US would be conservatives anywhere else. AOC and Bernie are just normal liberals. They wouldn’t even be considered progressive in most NATO countries. The US has a skewed political system because it has always been a right-wing government that, at the very best of times, bordered on fascist.
I live in such a country, and have no problem with imagining Bernie and AOC joining our leftist parties. The Socialist Left Party, the Green Party and the Red Party have policies and visions similar that match what Bernie and AOC is pushing. There are parts of the parties that could be described to the left of Bernie and AOC, but to claim that they belong in the Conservative Party is pretty silly, even if the Conservative Party is pro universal health care.
What the US call left-wing and right-wing, a sane political spectrum calls center-right and extreme-far-right
More like (not so) good cop, and (psychopatically) bad cop.
Its no where near center right, center on the scale doesn’t move, just the parties. Dems haven’t been center right in decades
Edit sp
Nah, Bernie and AOC are center-right. The average dem is far-right. It’s a conservative party.
In which country are you imagining Bernie and AOC fitting right in with a self proclaimed center-right party?

This is not the best of times.

I didn’t say Bernie and AOC belong in the conservative party. You didn’t understand what I wrote. I would encourage you to read it again.
I had a typo, Dems haven’t been center right for decades. They’ve been far right for years
The man on the right says to the man of the left, “Take a step towards me and we will meet in the middle”
The man on the left says “In the spirit of bipartisanship, of course I will” and takes a step towards the man on the right.
The man on the right takes a step back, smiles and says “Take a step towards me and we will meet in the middle.”
