Tainted Lunch Meat : Shadow Government wtf?

In a fairly forgettable interview with Newsmax Jeb Bush rather disturbingly encourages the Republicans to establish a shadow government while they are on the short end of the political stick. He also comically repeats the nonsense that the US is a center right country, after two straight election cycles where the country has tilted hard left. I wish they would give up that lie, they keep repeating it but it doesn't seem to want to stick, unlike so many of the other lies they have spouted in the past eight years. I don't know if what he thinks of as a shadow government is the same as what I think it is, but his nonchalance in advocating it really creeps me out, like that's a natural thing to have in a functioning democracy. Here's a few bits from the piece.

“If you take the [last] two election cycles, there’s real cause for concern, no question about it,” he said.

There is good news for Republicans, Bush said: The United States remains “basically a center-right country.”

Bush’s other advice on where the GOP should go from here:

The party should establish a loyal opposition and “organize ourselves in the form of a shadow government” that would address key issues, providing the public with “a loftier debate about policy” rather than mere partisanship.
