The Dems have moved so far to the right that what used to be the far-right (Bush/Cheney) now supports them

This is all you need to know about the Democratic Party. How many years before they make Trump look sane?

The dems have already rehabilitated GWB, McCain, and Cheney. It's a trueism that the democrats of today are the republicans of 20 years ago.

current day libs will have rehabilitated trump sometime in the next 20 years. I am willing to bet every dollar I own on that. it will happen, just like bush and cheney have been rehabilitated.

I do think Bush/Cheney etc are also moving away from DJT.
