Because we have far right domination of the party currently enjoying a trifecta in the federal government, while the far left in the US is split between a tiny minority of the opposition party and various politically-irrelevant minor parties.
Before its recent sharp right turn, it was widely argued that the US was a "center-right" country; it is now, by government if not necessarily popular sentiment, a far right one.
