To me, what's actually "radical" and "extreme" is gutting an entire branch of our government because they're not sufficiently loyal to you and replacing them with unqualified lobbyists, and political donors.
Radical: claiming every single government official who's said something negative about you is part of a criminal conspiracy to bring you down

Not radical: pointing out that the person who lies all the time and has provably committed crimes is a lying criminal
Radical: claiming that life under the Obama administration was somehow worse than what's going on right now, where 170k lives have been lost in just 5 months due to a pandemic.

Not Radical: voting out the guy who said it would all go away by April.
Radical: re-electing a former reality show host who watches cable news all day and only changed his political party in order to push racist conspiracy theories.

Not Radical: electing the moderate politician with a record of making bipartisan deals.
Radical: boosting the profile of politicians who sincerely believe insane conspiracies about Satanic pedophiles

Not Radical: Just Joe Biden in general. There is nothing radical about this guy, in some ways to a fault.
Radical: sabotaging the post office because you believe fewer people voting gives you a better chance to win

Not Radical: actually wanting everyone to exercise their right to vote without putting their life on the line
Radical: doing nothing whatsoever when given intelligence that Russia is putting bounties on the heads of American soldiers and not even bringing it up with Putin.

Not Radical: believing your own intelligence agencies over the word of a murderous dictator.
