    The far left generates way more votes for the Republicans than the far right generates for the Democrats. Without the help of the far left, the Republicans would be much weaker.

        Paul Graham Retweeted Lindsey Graham

        Much as I dislike Lindsey Graham, he's brilliantly on the mark here. And it shows how disorganized the Democrats are that he can publicly point out the source of their weakness, knowing they'll do nothing about it.https://twitter.com/LindseyGrahamSC/status/1324481425865908225 …

        My advice to @AOC - Stick to your guns and be more aggressive in pushing the Dem Party toward the socialist agenda. Do not be shy in driving your party even further left and certainly don’t let the Claire McCaskill’s of the world silence your voice. https://www.foxnews.com/media/aoc-rips-msnbc-claire-mccaskill-why-do-we-listen-to-people-who-lost-elections …

        Worse, the far left alienates the centre left, the far right doesn't alienate the centre right

        Which begs some serious questions about the "center right," don't you think?

        Curious to see what a non-controversial republican candidate would do in 4 years. Or would they go above and beyond to create another villain?

        I disagree, Trump lost a lot of votes from people who would really like to vote conservative otherwise.

        But Trump isn't far right. In fact, he doesn't really have much in the way of political principles at all. He lost votes for his character, not for where he falls on the political spectrum.

        I think we are at a stage where people are questioning a 2-party system of government and winner-take-all.

        It feels that in a country where AOC is considered far-left, thinking about a not-2-party system would be called a leftist heresy as well...
