'Left wing' MSNBC y'all.
This framing infuriates me, and it's not just Morning Joe saying. Obviously Peter Doocy's dumbass asked Biden this at the press conference yesterday, but even Don Lemon was saying this shyt last night.
HOW THE fukk HAS BIDEN MOVED TOO FAR LEFT? WHAT HAS HE DONE THAT WAS FAR LEFT? He ran on things like a $15 minimum wage, lower drug prices, a public option added to Obamacare, raising taxes on the rich, and student debt relief. The American people are overwhelmingly for those things, as is the Democratic caucus (allegedly) minus Manchin and Sinema.
He got NONE of that done in his first year. What did he get done? A corporate-backed infrastructure bill that he pressured the 'progressive' caucus, who are supposedly on his 'left,' to pass. And then he gave up on the other half of his agenda, that they actually wanted passed, after Manchin killed it.
So again I ask, HOW HAS HE MOVED TOO FAR LEFT? It can't even be on some culture war shyt because then why is Don Lemon, a gay black CNN anchor, saying the same thing?
