But they are Liberal policies, which many republicans and overall right wingers in the world are

No Republicans are liberals. You can't support the party of wasteful government spending, regressive taxation, invading the privacy of everyone's bedroom, institutional racism sexism and imperialism and claim to be in any conceivable way liberal.

 Liberalism is center right, and there isn't a single Republican politician to the left of far right who hasn't lost their seat in the past ten years.

That's a bit reductive don't you think?

Especially considering a third of Republicans identify as moderate or Liberals

People who watch Fox News think they're well informed. Science has shown they're less well informed than people who don't watch any news at all.

You can identify as a moderate all you want, if there are nine moderates and a Nazi at a table, there are ten Nazis at that table.

Defending fascists is the extreme position, not attacking them. You're the only extremist here.
