Do Never-Trump Republicans Know How Liberal Joe Biden Has Become?
I & I Editorial Board

I&I Editorial

President Donald Trump causes people to do the strangest things, but none is as strange as the growing determination by some Republicans to get Joe Biden elected in November, even as Biden moves further and further leftward.

We aren’t the only ones who’ve noticed that, while the country is fixated on the coronavirus panic-demic and race riots, Biden’s agenda has shifted sharply to the socialist side of the spectrum.

FiveThirtyEight noted a few weeks ago that “The Pandemic Has Pushed Biden To The Left. How Far Will He Go?”

Around the same time, New York magazine reported that “Biden Is Planning an FDR-Size Presidency.”

One Democratic consultant told The Hill that Biden has moved to the left on issues such as bankruptcy policy and college affordability, and that a Biden win, along with Democrats regaining control of the Senate, “could lead to a New Deal era of progressive policies.”

MarketWatch recently said Biden is proposing a “radical tax plan” that “goes after the indolent rich.”

Probably they know, they just don't care.  We're not on the list of priorities.

Question:
"Do Never-Trump Republicans Know How Liberal Joe Biden Has Become?"

Answer:
It doesn't matter to them, because in their hearts, they're "of the other side". And that's all that counts.

(does that include the paid disruptors right here?)

" . . . has become?"

Where was that editorial board hiding for thirty-odd years? (Bidet's head has had FDR-style presidencies, or close enough, from practically the first time he thought about running for the office. Rip Van Winkle himself could have told them as much.)

I tell you, a "None of These Candidates" vote such as I intend to cast this November (as I did in 2016) looks even better every day.

[catfish1957]

How can anyone tell?

He hasn't performed a complete sentence in years.

   Trumpers are shutting the door AFTER the Horses have already escaped the premises. 
   We screamed at the top of our lungs in 15/16 this very premise, 'The future was too important to elect a reality TV star from NY, no less, that had liberal tendencies his whole life'. 
   Did yall listen, NO, reap the whirlwind you have sown.

   Signed:
   Still Butthurt after all these years

Being ‘right’ is more important to them.

Joe Biden doesn't even know how liberal he has become.
I doubt he knows (or remembers) much of anything.
He just mouths what others tell him.

But -- right now -- I would be worried about betting my money against him becoming the next president.

So being wrong is the thing to do? Are you listening to yourself?

That's right.

NTs didn't make Trump shut down the economy and ignore the riots.  Sorry, but he shares the blame for the current state of affairs.

    At least hellary would have nuked the chicoms by now and shipped all the troublemakers back to Africa.

Yeah, and I hear me being ironic, not literal.

are you seriously contending that the president did either of those things?

[roamer_1]

Ah. With some folks it's hard to tell. 

[roamer_1]

Yes he did. He is complicit.

Apparently, nobody can make President Tweety do anything. Or, not do a lot of what he does. (And God only knows nobody can get him to shut his tweeter---not even his wife.) Not even when it might, maybe, somehow, even briefly make sense.

Biden will be the most easily manipulated President in modern history, if elected. And that's following George W. Bush.

[dfwgator]

They don't care they just want their old Republican Party back, at all costs.

[skeeter]

Yes he did. He is complicit.

I realize you dislike Trump but always took you for a reasonable guy. That statement is so simplistic as to be ridiculous.

Trump recommended a 15 day shut down back when everyone thought we were all gonna die from the vid. So he’s complicit for that much. The rest of the shut down belongs to the locales.

Trump didn’t ignore the riots. The constitution ties his hands. True, he didn’t invoke the Insurrection Act and send in the 101st, so he’s ‘complicit’ for that much.

I try to be reasonable, I really do.
I am on the record being FOR him in this at the start - When he was calling it bullcrap, he was right on the money. Then he folded up like a 2 dollar lawn chair. Nuff said.

There he was, for endless hours, standing there with Fauxi, leading the whole show... Toward the end there, I think he figured out he'd been had and tried to distance himself and turn it around. But you can't have it both ways. Had it gone the other way, I know damn well he'd be taking credit.

Then he should have shut up... He came off looking like a battleship mouth and a rowboat ass. And I have no problem believing that his handling of these two episodes are directly behind his failing polls. That and spending money like a fool...

The four plus trillion dollars Trump and crew authorized is going to have long term consequences of major proportions. He's on the hook for that.

He never updated the social distancing guidelines which gave rise to the shutdowns.  Then he trashed the one country that rejected single factor analysis.  His rhetoric has been all over the board since March, and the federal response can fairly be described as chaotic.  Not a good look in an election year. 

Yes I think he botched the riots also.  He should have invoked the insurrection act.  We are living under mob rule at this point.  How is a Biden administration going to be any worse?
