So every now and then someone asks what would have had to have happened to get the Democrats and Republicans to switch places in the US political system. Even I've done that. But quite frankly that's getting boring by now. Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to make the Republicans a centre-left (by European standards) party, with actual socialists on its left-wing, whilst the Democrats are the party of deregulation, unfettered neoliberalism, and with a sizeable libertarian bloc. Bonus points if the Republicans still mobilise religious populism to appeal to their base.
