> if people are confused about what red america thinks, they would be well served to look at Breitbart, tucker, and independent conservative outlets

I've been scolded for using Breitbart or Tucker Carlson as a barometer for right-wing positions because they're claimed to be extreme, or 'alt-right', and not reflective of how real conservatives think or feel.

They're, from my perspective, further in to the right than the average repub. Huffpo is sorta where I would put them, if you want a left analogue.
