I had a big oof moment when I once heard the point made that some of the worst (or at least most evil) decisions we've ever made in this country were when we had mass bipartisan support.
Things with unanimous bipartisan support in USA: Torture, war, military funding, spying on citizens, police funding, prison funding, tax cuts
Fringe loony left positions in the USA: trains, public healthcare, public education, reducing the military, not spying on citizens, closing torture sites
