The media's use of the the term "far right" for democratically elected politicians is actually a really useful tell. They are unintentionally signaling how biased they are.
Either: "This politician, who received millions of votes is very far right of me (I am very far to the left)."
Or: "I am the center of the left-right spectrum, and this politician who received millions of votes is quite a ways to the right of me (the center), so they are obviously far right."
if someone is democratically elected they can’t have en extreme ideology?
Extreme relative to what? The left-right framework is purely arbitrary and relative. I would argue the center should be set at the political views of the average voter. If 50% of voters elect a politician, I would then argue the candidate is quite close to the “center”.
Since most presidential elections are basically 50/50, every president and their opposition are all basically in the center, I guess.
Are there any conservative leaders that the media doesn't call "far right"?
