Stuart Stevens: ‘The Republican Party Is Not a Traditional American Party, It’s an Extremist Movement’

‘That’s how we really have to view it’

RUSH EXCERPT:

STEVENS: “The party I was drawn to that Molly is talking about, Ronald Reagan announced for president in front of the Statue of Liberty. He signed a bill that made everyone in the country legal before 1983. His last speech was an ode to immigration. And when he was running against George bush for the primary, you can see it on youtube, there is a debate they had in Texas where they actually get in an argument about who is more liberal on immigration. And you know, it’s like your head explodes. But that was something that the party embraced. And now, it’s just really — the Republican Party is not a traditional American party. It’s an extremist movement. That’s how we really have to view it.”
