“We’re a big-tent party” is the latest talking point of frantic Democrats. It sounds impressive, but what, exactly, does it mean? Democrats claim to welcome everyone regardless of race, religion, sex, or ancestry—with one caveat: You must agree with Democrat-approved opinions on all substantive issues, which makes it a rather peculiar kind of inclusiveness.
