I don’t know this case specifically, but usually USA Democrats are similar to Europe Right-far right, not center-right. Republicans are what we could say mad-right to most Europeans.
As bad as the Democratic leadership can be sometimes, I don’t see them as bad as Le Pen or the AfD, which I’d both consider far-right. I also don’t see the USA Democrats being cozy with Putin.
I don’t disagree. I’d say a majority of policy positions should generally be the go-to definition. What, in your opinion, are all the policy positions of the Democratic leadership that would represent the majority of their policies to arrive at calling them far-right?
