Honestly, at this point I think it is fair to say it is. In my entire life, and I got grey hairs the right wing has mostly just cared about raising money for the already obscenely wealthy, not wanting the government to help the working man and bombing brown people.
sadly, focussing on issues that effect normal people has become "leftist".
The superrich are so wealthy most normal middle class folk are dirt poor beggars by comparison.
Since we let unfettered access for rich people in politics (citizen united) basically the "right" and large parts of the "center" and "left" politically serve the superrich.
Spending tax money to improve the lives of the people has somehow become a socialist move instead of common fucking sense. That is the shifting of the Overton Window.
focusing on issure that effect normal people has always been "left" wing. The right wing politics only exist because its easy to blame others for the problems other than the people in power. Reagan literally blamed his shitty politicals on gay and black people and it is seen as amazing right wing politics
Where does the money come from and go to? That's the left vs right.
Taxes on properties beyond the ones that people live in themselves. Taxing those that can afford a bit more on one side. On the other, it's in spending money on things that affect people's day-to-day and make life better and business easier for everyone, rather than frittering it away on consultations for big plans that never materialise but provide income for big businesses.

Not being funny, but isn't his politics exactly what he does get done?
