And Biden, too.
Which is crazy to me. He's a huge neolib. He may be more progressive than anticipated, but he certainly isn't on the left.
Neoliberal doesn’t even have a definition anymore. People just say it to disparage anyone they want to.
Biden doesn’t fit many of any of the metrics of a neoliberal.
He’s not huge on privatization, he opposes austerity measures, he has been a proponent of much greater regulation, and he sure as shit isn’t a proponent on cutting government spending.
Lol, gottem!
Took me a second. Good one.
If only he weren't quite right to he called left...
Edit: Sorry, Feel the need to elaborate.
In 1980s, he was not liberal. Held him back.
In 2020s, we was not liberal, he was progressive. Pushed him forward.
That shit got him locked in by all the clandestined powers that be.
According to the progressives: "at least it wasn't Bernie."
Two elections running...
