How do centrists look at this administration and say, yeah I still think we need compromise. WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU COMPROMISE WITH FASCISTS Never see centrists talk about wanting to compromise with the left

I’ve grown very tired of the “enlightened centrists” who will somehow always find an excuse to vote Republicans

I mean I’m just guessing here. If more centrists are going right than left the right has to be doing a better PR job than the other side. Otherwise there wouldn’t be a flow in their favor

Nowadays centrists are people with more right sided beliefs who in this current climate don’t want to announce that they’re siding with the orange man and his goon squad

or it could say something about centrists... like that their centrism is still right wing and theyre more likely to drift more in the direction they already are

Why would there be more right leaning centrists than left ones?

me and #5 basically said the same thing. centrism isnt center. centrists are still right leaning, at a minimum. theyre not too far off being dedicated right wing voters, and they are farther from doing anything left-adjacent
