    Since liberals abandoned the label in favor of “progressive,” I say it’s up for grabs...https://twitter.com/billkristol/status/1008035138100396032 …

    An interesting piece. Are we--or rather should we all be--classical liberals now? https://politi.co/2JXJQGp

        How about we shoot for being open minded, innovative, and thinking outside the box? We live in a time when these political labels are obsolete.

        I agree. I’m a Democrat. Save the purity labels.

        Look where the purity test got us. Bernie Sanders for starters and then Trump.

        Ooh...please tell me that you know “classical liberalism” is not directly related to what Americans call “liberal”! When you study the history of political philosophies, you’ll understand. With respect. 🤭

        Reagan made it a dirty word. So it’s appropriate Republicans claim it for themselves.

        Ironic since in the 20s progressives co-opted liberal to avoid comparisons to Red movements

        The GOP party is living in 1940 Nazi Germany - if you want to make fun of Democrats go ahead - at least we don’t KILL CHILDREN - pretend Christians in Republican Party should be ashamed

        You @BillKristol were always fine with subjecting other countries to American enforced military dictatorships (Iraq and Afghanistan) but when your party decided to bring it here - to our country - it became too much. basically fascist-lite. Does that label work for you?

        Lets and these labels all together. Its three necessarily first step to ending our pseudo parliament we have going on. Unless you explicitly support trump, maybe refer to yourself as independent & vote your beliefs, regardless of the political implications pushed by establishment

        Hillary also declined the label "moderate" after first wearing it for 2016.
