> The political window has shifted further and further left in recent years.
As an outside observer, I'm Canadian, this viewpoint of many Americans that their politics has shifted "left" is flabbergasting. The SC has definitely shifted hard right and Roe v. Wade is essentially overturned, or being, overturned in many states. "Don't say gay" and other anti LGBQT+ laws are being passed.
I feel you are using a very "true Scotsman" definition of Conservative in your world view in order to paint Republicans as "left".
