The Democratic Party has moved too far to the left.

Yeah... that also is ostrichism. As if all presidencies would more or less fall in the same realm as the Trump one. But they really do not. They usually do not besmirch the office, while Trump very much does that. You don't seem to refute that in principle.

Also, Trump is trying everything to lever out checks and balances. The republicans in Congress have no interest in any oversight or any "check" any longer. They defend wahtever with ridiculous and outlandish means. And Trump is also banking on the SC behaving the same way.
