Biden was running as a centrist?! That's news to me.

Biden's branding during the primaries revolved around not being as extreme as candidates like Sanders and Warren. Then during the election his branding predominantly revolved around healing America's partisan divides. He was definitely running as a centrist.

I know right, he is definitely on the right in the political spectrum.

The left or even centre-left has never been in power in the US and probably never will.

What positions has he taken that you view as extreme?

That's what most of the Republican voters I know said.

The GOP has gone so far right that "centrist" is unrecognizable.
