    Where are all the centrists who insist that Biden is the most progressive president who ever drew breath?

      Here. He ran as a centrist, acted as a centrist, and pursued the most progressive policies of any president in my life, except maybe Carter

        “Pursued” is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence.

        The Inflation Reduction Act is the biggest thing Biden got done. Centrists expect everyone to act like it’s the New Deal and the Great Society rolled into one. That ain’t holding water. We saw what we lost with BBB.

      I’m not a centrist but he’s absolutely been the most progressive president in my lifetime in terms of policy.

              Sure did, now if only he could’ve done it without being a dictator.

              We both agree genocide is bad, I’m sorry you’re just also a petulant dipshit.

        There aren’t any. But there is no shortage of centrists who want progressives to be happy with what makes centrists happy. They’ll outright lie and say that Biden is progressive.
