    Biden isn’t a leftist. He’s just less right than his opposition.

        If your options were Hitler or Mussolini, which one would be the leftist in your mind since surely there must always be one.

        It’s not a relative word though. It describes a specific set of political beliefs, which Biden does not hold… so he’s not a leftist. He’s a liberal, and barely one at that.
