you hear trump time and time again banging on about the radical left as if the democrats were some kind of bolshevik cabal, it's insane. sadly it's also a successful propaganda tool intended to get traction with anyone with a tendency to oppose anything portrayed as 'left', irrespective of the truth. i think it works well in the US because they are highly indoctrinated but a good proportion of the population are on that path over here too.
