Original Note:
Data does show asymmetric polarization – but the opposite of this claim. The GOP has shifted to the far-right since the 1990s, while the Democratic Party has not shifted far-left. See "Republicans have moved further to the right than Democrats have to the left" here: https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2022/03/10/the-polarization-in-todays-congress-has-roots-that-go-back-decades/
