What's most asymmetric here are affective and anti-system polarization. Whatever one thinks of The Squad, they work within the parameters of small-d democratic politics to achieve change. That just isn't true for the Trump faction on the right, who are also more influential. — PolitiTweet.org

Basically, what's happening is that American politics are looking more European. Democrats are becoming more like a social democratic or Green party; Republicans are increasingly resembling the free-market incarnation of radical right factions. — PolitiTweet.org

Anyway, two things that are both true: 1) Median opinion among elected and rank-and-file Democrats on both social and economic issues has moved left since Obama 2) During that same time, the GOP embraced procedural radicalism and turned against democracy itself — PolitiTweet.org

This is a good point I didn't really have space to address in the piece: the American New Right makes a lot of noises about breaking with neoliberalism but it still adheres more closely to free market thinking than many of its far right peers in Europe — PolitiTweet.org

People often say that DeSantis is what “competent Trumpism” looks like. In reality, Trumpism was never a cogent thing — an incoherent reflection of its namesake’s jumbled thinking. But Orbánism is a real ideology. And DeSantis is bringing it to America. https://t.co/vLHIaYzTl9 — PolitiTweet.org

The intellectual history here is pretty interesting. Scholars like @pastpunditry and @LarryGlickman find its origins not in the founders — who believed in a version of "democracy" in the contemporary sense — but in fights against the New Deal and the Civil Rights movements https://t.co/vH6V2wLO54 — PolitiTweet.org

This "republic not a democracy" line is obviously absurd as a matter of political theory, but the way Republicans use it is quite revealing of their own feelings about representative government https://t.co/4EBddsU1mM — PolitiTweet.org
