I mean, sure, but the Dems have been the (relatively, since standards here are fucked) economically left party since 1896 saw the last of the ‘pro-business’ hardliners marginalized, and the (again, relatively) socially left party since 1964 saw a definitive break with the Dixiecrats after ~15 years of distancing.
Gotta be careful with liberal = democrat. The democrats absolutely were not the liberals of more modern times a century ago.
