This is correct. Today's Republicans are closer to yesterday's moderate Dems (save horrible spending) than today's Dems are. I could (and did) support yesterday's Dems but there are no more.

Agreed, I voted for Clinton and think he was a good POTUS.

Right now, Nancy Pelosi is mainstream within that party, she is the anchor trying to keep the radicals from going too far left. Let that sink in.

I don't understand this statement at all. Between the Tea Party and Trump the GOP isn't looking very moderate or very Republican.

what policies do today’s GOP advocate for, which they haven’t traditionally advocated for? be specific? i can make a pretty specific list about what dems are advocating for today, thatbthey sure weren’t advocating for when Bill Clinton was president, many many things.

the tea party was a very powerful political force in the few years after its genesis, but it advocated for traditionally conservative ideals of fiscal responsibility.

trumps policies are pretty moderate. he’s not Pat Buchanan, not by a long shot. Planned Parenthood is still being funded fully. he advocated for prison reform.
