As stated, this is an ongoing and gradual process, which has accelerated a bit of late. I will absolutely say I was surprised that Biden got the nomination, but his VP pick should be revealing in this regard. Regardless, I stand by my assertion that the far left is making greater inroads into the party norm with every day. Much like my predicting that CA style gun control would come to your home state. I'm at ground zero for this bullshit, so I'm just seeing it in real time well before you guys back east do.
Well, CA style gun control isn't really leftist. That is still more of a liberal policy because leftist ideology is adamantly against disarming the workers. Also, here in Virginia we definitely didn't get the full CA experience. That AWB bullshit got kicked to the curb. The biggest issue was with the red flag laws.
