Nonsense. Biden and Harris will absolutely not “govern to the right of” Trump.
Wanna bet? They're not in Congress, so you can look at two major things: what they do overseas, and what bills they sign or veto.
-What do you think will happen with NATO? Will Biden look to repair that relationship, or will they act like lefties, and continue to pull troops?
I predict a freeze. He'll halt any Germany drawdown that hasn't already started, although he may follow through on bringing home the Stryker Brgade (& replacing it with constant rotational deployment). Otherwise -- status quo in Germany & everywhere else.
-Will Biden close more military bases?
I doubt it.
-Will Biden withdraw further from our role as the World's Cop
Just the opposite
You know the answer to every question, Doc. Biden will move America further to the right overseas.
Yep. We be Globocop again.
As for the rest of the Executive Branch activities....crime, DoJ, FBI, etc.? Have you seen Kamala's record? She's not a lefty, Doc.
She goes whichever way the wind is blowing. Wall St is relieved it's not Warren.
She'll become Miss Congeniality, prepping for her next run in 4 years, maybe as the incumbent.
Yep. You're seeing exactly what I'm seeing------Biden will govern center right. This is not a complicated call.
Biden is an empty vessel. He will govern as he's told to govern.
That's odd. I could say the same thing about every President we've had since Carter left office.
It's almost as if the 1% is running things......while you laughably fret about magic lefties running the country.
Is the 1% richer or poorer under Trump, Tech? And how hard did you have to think before answering?
But sure, lets worry about some stupid kids in Portland.
Portland is back to “normal”:
In a retrospective of the city's protests from November 2016 to November 2017, Shane Dixon Kavanaugh of The Oregonian wrote: "Portland's convulsive protests thrust the city into the national spotlight as they often descended into violence and chaos even as most demonstrators remained peaceful... [T]he churn of marches, demonstrations and rallies has become enduring fiber in the fabric of the city. The protests spanned issues – immigrant rights, homelessness, racism, police accountability, free speech. They drew students, parents, anarchists and Trump supporters."[4]
My cousin said folks in Portland know how to protest.
