No, I like AOC but she is wrong.

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/06/26/opinion/sunday/republican-platform-far-right.html

The main thrust of the article (it's a neat article! I've read it in the past but I think I forgot to post it) is how the Republican party is further to the right than most right-wing parties in Europe but if you go down a bit they put all the major parties across the US and Europe on a spectrum based on their platforms.

A bit further down they single out The Democratic Party, Republican Party, Labour, and Conservatives (UK) and examine where they are and how they've moved over the past 20 years. The 2016 Democratic Party is just a shade right of 2017 Labour and both are left of the median if not by much. The Democratic Party is center-left and it has been moving left since 2008 and I have no reason to believe that trajectory has changed in the past 3 years lol.
