    I like that this was published in 2020, before he ran for president and we acknowledged that he’s a moderate (read: conservative), rather than pretending he’s ultra progressive or some bullshit.

      The sell by the DNC that Joe was progressive wasn’t really on until he was already in office and they wanted to try and hold onto any waning succdems that they could. He was the new FDR remember? But of course that rapidly turned into the classic dem “uwu we’re just a smol bean party that can’t pass anything” shtick
