It's Official: Democrats Are The Extremists Today
Quote
Partisanship: Everyone knows that the country is more politically polarized than ever,
but most don't know why. Data from the highly respected Pew Research Center provides a
definitive answer. It's because Democrats have moved sharply to the extreme left.

The Pew report — titled "The Partisan Divide on Political Values Grows Even Wider" — is the
latest in a decades-long series of surveys it has conducted to gauge people's views on various
key issues, including the size of government, immigration, corporate profits, race relations. The
authors of the report note the "divisions between Republicans and Democrats on fundamental
political values ... reached record levels during Barack Obama's presidency. In Donald Trump's
first year as president, these gaps have grown even larger."

Given the way politics gets reported these days, it's easy to conclude that the widening gap
is the result of Republicans become more extreme in their views. That is, after all, a mantra
among Democrats and the press
. The GOP is the party of racist, sexist, xenophobic, right-
wing extremists, we hear over and over again, while Democrats are but humble centrists.

The Pew data, however, make it clear that the shift toward the extreme
has happened among Democrats, not Republicans.

Anyone who has the ability to think for themselves will see that the DNC are the extremist. I say ability to think because the DNC actions speak for themselves and show this.  Controlling the flow of information is a very powerful weapon.
