The question Is Susan Sarandon right wing is a simple question. It’s a simple yes or no answer with no need to obfuscate.

Myself and several others have told you the people being discussed are not right wing but on the left.

We are not all wrong. They are on the left, not the right. Ideology and party affiliation are two different things. Just because someone is on the left doesn’t automatically mean they support the Democratic Party. Many on the left don’t. That is just reality.
