Biden gave a speech this morning condemning the university antiwar protesters. He calls them violent and says that they are protesting illegally.

… I’m confused by your response. Biden has been and continues to appeal to centerists right? Like that’s what he’s been doing for his entire presidency.
He has, and continues to, support progressives and moderates. He’s very much a progressive-leaning moderate that is willing to go further left if he can (something Hillary refused to do).
The only time he really goes hard centrist is when it’s potentially catastrophic for him to do otherwise. And even then he goes centrist, he tries to find ways to push the situation left (eg. border security, Israel, railroad strike).
Lol no.
Biden has spent his entire campaign catering exclusively to moderates and liberals while thumbing his nose at progressives and leftists and that’s why I won’t be voting for him again.
I can’t believe you even mentioned the railroad strike in this context. Blocking a strike is thumbing his nose at progressives and leftists. I fucking hate him for doing that. Fuck Joe Biden.
Cool, your next Dem nominee isn’t even going to support Unions, isn’t going to push green initiatives, isn’t going to fight against abortion bans, isn’t going to fight student debt, is going to go hard on immigrants, is going to be pro-genocide. If you don’t suppose a moderate Dem president who pushes progressive policy when he can, then your vote doesn’t matter and you’re going to end up with a '90s era conservative Democrat. Maybe Joe Manchin. That’s after 4 more years of Trump taking away more civil liberties. I’m sure you’ll be happy about that.
Using your definition of support or mine?
