at ExpressVPN.com slash Ben. Well, you'll remember that Joe Biden was elected on a couple of promises. One is that he would not be Donald Trump, which is a pretty easy promise to keep. All you have to do is not be Donald Trump. The other is that he would not be alive. And on one hand, he's kind of kept that promise because this president is not particularly sentient. Every so often he gets into a running gun battle with the teleprompter and then loses. Every so often it appears as though he's going to keel over in the middle of the sentence. On that score, he seems doddering, unthreatening. But one of the big promises of him not being particularly alive was going to be that he was not radical. And he was going to be a moderate. It's the reason he won the primaries against Bernie Sanders. It's the reason he won against President Trump.

0:55.8

Again, the incident. particularly alive was going to be that he was not radical and he was going to be a moderate. That's the reason he won the primaries against Bernie Sanders.

1:28.0

has been basically stagnant in terms of its policy prescriptions and positions since 2010.

1:33.1

The Democratic Party has been moving ever more steadily to the left. And people of the left have

1:37.4

begun to acknowledge this. They begin to acknowledge, yes, we're getting more radical. Now,

1:40.5

what they say is our radicalism is justified and good, but there is no question that Joe Biden himself has moved to the left.

1:48.5

And this administration, which promised to be a return to some semblance of normalcy, might be more normal in terms of Joe Biden not tweeting, but it is certainly less normal in terms of policy.

1:58.5

This was always the great disconnect with Trump, is that Trump said crazy things all the time,

2:02.0

but Trump's actual policy was mainstream Republican policy, very often embracing
