Here’s Noam Chomsky talking a few years ago about how the Dems are the single legit political party now, essentially a moderate conservative party. Salon seems to think this predicted Trump.

It also fits with my fantasy in which the Bush-Romney part of the GOP (if it exists) will lean toward Clinton and just face the fact that they really can all get along, restructure the fundraising, etc., around this new party: center-right on foreign affairs, moderate on the social contract (preserve some safety net, don’t do anything progressive), liberal on gender and sexuality.

But what I like best here are the Putin apparatchiks of Russia Today pretending to report and analyze the news.
