Pretty hilarious that you have to reach back 25 years for one iffy example that happened right after we had the largest terrorist attack in the history of the earth. It was absolutely a knee-jerk reaction, and wasn't the norm, it's very much the exception.
Please cite something from the last 5 or 10 years. I couldn't find anything recent to support your claim.
It's absolutely an iffy example, I told you exactly why - you had to reach back a quarter century to find anything, and it was a knee-jerk reaction to a catastrophic terrorist attack. You can't really defend that by saying "canonical". You aren't a serious person if you're citing it here. *Today's Democrats are not the Democrats from 25 years ago after a stinging terrorist attack.*
Asking for an example from the last 10 years isn't moving a goalpost, it's a reasonable thing to ask. I searched and I couldn't find anything that would support your claim.
I mean, why didn't you reach back further before the Southern Strategy. Sure, then I have no doubt that Democrats would fit into your cherry-picking.
Until you provide a recent example, this pointless internet interaction is over.

We don’t need to keep chasing this moving goalpost.
The Patriot Act is not an “iffy example”. It is the canonical one, and was subsequently reauthorized in bipartisan votes.
