Right! The two major parties in the USA are quite flexible. We saw this when Bill Clinton broke from 70s era liberalism (i.e. "Third Way"), we saw it with the Hillary-Sanders struggle, and we're seeing it now with Trump, who has quite a different platform from Bush or even Romney.
What would be a minority party run elsewhere can be accommodated by the major parties in the USA. This is a strength of American politics, not a weakness.
