The Overton window has moved so far to the right that corporate Democrats are what Eisenhower Republicans were when I was growing up. I hope the center shifts back in my lifetime.

100% true and I have hope but little faith we can balance again. As a species, we really do not learn.🙁

Too much propaganda.

They’re to the right of Eisenhower really. Think wealth tax

Really? John F. Kennedy would be considered a right wing conservative today.

Eisenhower republicans were far to the left of corporate dems.

I really don’t think the center has shifted much in the last fifty years. I do believe that democrats and republicans are gravitating to opposite ends of the spectrum. Corporate Democrats have always been akin to Eisenhower Republicans and Wallace Democrats are now Republican.

I’ve always called corporate dems Country Club Republicans from the 1960s. These people are neither liberal nor progressive.

Is the Donor Class a Cancer or a Parasite?

If anyone’s been paying attention, then there’s no need to ask.
