He has always been right wing. People forget that he was picked as a VP for Obama because Obama seemed “too radical” to the DNC. He was at best a centrist, at worst a 1990s centrist, which is to say, a Republican. All you have to do is look at his voting record.
I mean, one of his first acts as president was to open more concentration camps. Biden is also a right-wing extremist. He’s just a politer, less blatantly unhinged one. The idea that the US is a democracy is such a joke. We criticize states like Russia for having sham elections, but ours are a sham as well since we have no choice but to vote for Democrats. There’s no left wing or progressive representation at all.
Do we have any words that left that aren’t slurs?
Yes, lots of them
Misspeaking under the duress of the state of the union address is a far cry from “rightward lurch”. I’d have to see an ongoing pattern to come to such a conclusion. But you do you.
Duress?
“Psychological pressure” like public speaking for someone with a speech impediment.
He’s tried to justify his fascist speak later. It’s a freudian slip, not a duress thing.
