      And, as to #2, the Democratic party in 2012 & 2016 was significantly to the left of where it was in 2004, when it had moved significantly to the left of where it was in 1996.https://twitter.com/DavidAFrench/status/1293578934374805506 …

      These things are all true: 1. A mainstream Democrat chose a mainstream Democrat for Veep. 2. The mainstream of the Democratic party is left of where it was in 2016 and 2012. 3. If 2018 is any indication, many previously-red suburbs are left of where they were in 2016.

      Heck, there are issues where the GOP is left of where the DLC Democrats were in the 1990s.

      Democrats in the 1990s = budget surplus, interventionist abroad, Defense of Marriage Act, Religious Freedom Restoration Act, Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act, welfare reform, and crime bill.

          Also, not a hate crime to use the "wrong" pronouns. And it was permissible to think riots are bad. And there were a few Democrats who didn't think identity politics were the most important thing in the world.
