The republicans who don’t vote at all, but pretend to be moderate can’t be won by a Democrat either.

Triangulation is bullshit, moving to the middle doesn’t win you a big contigent of moderates who like social democratic policy, but only if its complicated and means-tested, who want to starve Cuba and Venezuela, but thinks shooting their fishermen is too much, who want ICE rounding up immigrants into “migrant overflow facilities”, but not concentration camps.
