Yes, both parties have moved into Progressivism....so there are Progressive Republicans as well as Progressive Democrats and even Progressive Libertarians. Anytime a politician prefers larger and larger governments that take on more responsibilities and chooses to do it with other peoples money and removes more and more individual and state rights, they are Progressives.
That's not what progressivism is or means, and in that light, it becomes easy to see why "progressivism" as described above (and elsewhere in your post) can find itself at home in so many places while simultaneously baring no resemblance to progressivism.
That is, however, a laundry list of accusations that right wing nuts have levied at progressivism ( I particularly enjoy the commie touch) ..which has been very successful at subverting the narrative, lol.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
