Extremism needs to be judged by the standards of that party in this context. An extreme Democrat is either a radical socialist like Bernie Sanders, or utterly non-progressive like Biden. Likewise extremist for the GOP would be a fascist like Trump, or someone so far left as to almost qualify as a progressive.
I can’t help but notice that you couldn’t come up with leftist GOP extremist.
I think you were able to do it with Democrats was because Democrats are really everyone else who doesn’t identify themselves as Republicans. With the first past the post, those different parties have no option but to work together as one.
I couldn’t list the left of the GOP because I don’t honestly follow the GOP besides the nearly daily disgust at the things they do. There has to be a far left for the GOP, I’m just not sure who that is (probably because they aren’t making the headlines, just quietly doing what they can to hold back the rest of the monsters in their party). Whose the least offensive Republican you can think of? That’s probably the far left for them.
