A Moderate Biden Upsets Democrats Who Want Rage.
President Biden has shown that he will take a moderate approach to everything, even the overturning of 50 years of Supreme Court precedent, enraging the left wing of the party. (The Hill)
“Democrats say they are angry, and they want President Biden to be angry, too.
In recent weeks, they’ve watched the Supreme Court overturn Roe v. Wade and at least one conservative justice hint that same-sex marriage and contraception could be next. Then they saw the high court restrict the Environmental Protection Agency’s ability to effectively tackle climate change.
They’ve also witnessed the escalation of gun violence despite a small-scale legislative success on gun safety that fell well below what Democrats want to do on that issue. ”
President Biden is leading the left wing of America in the 1970s moderate fashion he is accustomed to leading. In the post Donald Trump era that moderation is incongruent with the winner take all vicious 24 hour news cycle/constant attack politics that America now craves and expects from their leaders. Donald Trump was a master of harnessing his verbal attacks to leverage the most damage possible to ensure that his side won. Democrat are demanding the same from President Biden.
