    The reality is the majority of the USA is in the center. It’s why we usually don’t have run away elections.

      I would argue that most Americans are apathetic and easily swayed by rhetoric calling reasonable progressive policies “extreme”. That’s not exactly the same as being in the center, although it does lead to pretty much the same outcomes.
