Moderate?

WASHINGTON (AP) — Liz Cheney, one of Donald Trump’s fiercest Republican antagonists, will join Democrat Kamala Harris at a campaign event in Wisconsin on Thursday aimed at reaching out to moderate voters and rattling the former president. (emphasis added)

The implication, of course, is that Trump's policies are extreme.  What we have here, once again, is political projection: unwilling to admit their own extremism, the extremist Dems project it into their political opponents. And Turncoat Liz goes right along with it. She is one of the more repulsive of the RINOs.  

The Dems embrace a number of extreme, and extremely deleterious, policies. I challenge anyone to point to one of Trump's policies that is extreme.  Policies, not personality. He is not Mr. Nice Guy, like Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House. But how effective is a guy like that in the clinch?

UPDATE (10/5):  A Dem sees the light.

    The fact that Trump is detested by the elite of BOTH the leftist Democrats, and the rightist Republicans, pegs him as coming from the center, which is actually the best place from which to govern.
    Extremes are numerically small, and thus the size of Trumps rallies also is evidence of his actual centrism.

    This is from a current comment string over at The Spectator:
    “Benjamin Franklin was for reconciliation with Britain until he went to parliament and was treated with disrespect and contempt. Afterwards he was passionately in favor of independence. He commented that you can forgive a man who cheats you out of your money. You never forgive a man who treats you with contempt. The ruling class is playing with fire. I despise the people running this country. Liz Cheney is the poster child of the ruling class.”

    That’s a good article, Joe. Thanks for the link. They do have contempt for us, as is shown by their brazen lie. It’s an admin packed to the gills with mendacious shytes.
