    When faced with a political threat from the hard right, one of liberalism's worst reflexes is to coddle and celebrate the centre right.

        Trump is a unique threat to democratic norms. shouldn't we make common cause with those on the right who continue to resist him?

        It's left over from the 1990s; it's how Bill Clinton got elected. Then Obama did the same thing (trying to compromise with whom?).

        I don't see why this is bad, so long as the centre right is also helping. Folks like Ryan, Rubio should only get MORE scorn.
