nope, center right is what the DNC is and most of the party. most voters are slightly left of that, but still have alot of center right elements. SIDE RANT, and i have heard people that move from east to west coast have more "conservative views, because they dint like thier family members living near them or the “locals”. its usually the transplants that bring thier beliefs over(from other states) that live in blue areas, aka reverse white flight and gentrifying.
Comment on U.S. Pushes Allies to Chase a New Terrorism Target: The Far Left

Is there even a ‘far left’ in America? I’d hardly call the Democratic Party that.

The Democratic Socialists has had many socialist and anti-capitalist activists and groups in it since Bernie’s run for president. There are also still activists and groups doing their own thing independent of the democratic party. The Greens are still around, have adopted an ecosocialist platform and have a considerable number of registered voters. That being said I think their members’ political leaning and activity varies wildly from place to place and the momentum is with the Democratic Socialists these days.

Electorally? None with any real hope, in my view. Possibly some local council members?
There are certainly people with communist and anarchist ideas, organising with like-minded people and engaging in antifascism. I don’t know to what degree they’re organised, and there are efforts from the government to chill them, but they exist.

I figured there were such groups around, but too small and politically ineffectual to be a threat to the elite, and probably not what they’re talking about here. My eyes roll out of my head whenever I hear Trump call the Democratic Party the ‘radical left’.

its the conservative party propaganda, its to keep thier own voters from having alternatives to vote for.
