      It depends, if you’re left of the candidates, I’d argue that the umbrella still includes you.

      If you’re agreeing with right-wing extremist positions, the umbrella doesn’t include (like Fetterman).

        I’m so far to their left the umbrella is dripping on me and one shoulder is getting wet.

        And I’d rather not be under the umbrella in the first place.

          this is pretty much what makes me a centerist. our country is the constitution. it came into being with its rattification and exists only so long as it does. being a citizen means accepting it as the framework for our rule of law in the society. no issue is as important to me as getting back to following the constitution and prosecuting every violation of it. So im big on rules but hierarchy no so much that its about running the system.

        Except rightwing positions tend to be represented by the umbrella’s actions a lot better than leftwing positions.
