It indicates that the candidates have gotten so left/socialist they are likely to lose all the moderates and centrists.  

I’m that way. I’d love to see a good alternative to Trump but no way will I vote for any socialist who advocates absolutely ruinous policies.

It indicates that the Republican Party has gone way too far right , that is why we won the biggest midterm election in 50 yrs and are still winning even in the Reddest of Red States, and considering Hillary Clinton got 3 million more votes than t

Trump....most Americans will choose another Democratic candidate in 2020. I am not worried about the candidate being too far left.  We are a smart party and will choose someone who is fit on day one, unlike Trump who wasn't and still isn't fit for office....any public office, especially after he Bribed the Ukrainians and hurt our national security, in fact he should be impeached and removed and never allowed to serve any public office. I think by end of impeachment more than the current 70% will know Trump did something wrong, more like 90% with a full 30% either not caring or worse. But in the end Justice will be done. Either at ballot box or impeachment.

The further left these candidates go, the more it helps Trump and that is what I’m worried about.

Answer 9

That despite all the stupid criticisms of him from conservatives as some sort of communist he is actually was/is a moderate.   They just wanted to spread hate for him.

  Wrong answer. He knows the socialists don't have a chance against Trump so he's telling them to lie.

Answer 10

It means that he's telling them the truth.  People aren't ready to accept certain things head-on.  It takes time to get people to meld into progress.
