Is Biden not a centrist? He seems to be a right-of-center christian democrat like Merkel for example.
- scrollaway 6y agoHe is, in European terms. The US is on a completely different scale.
- FDSGSG 6y agoIs it even meaningful to speak of centrism in a US context?
- scrollaway 6y agoNot really. The US has turned "centrism" into a swear word. But that's kind of the point and why calling Biden centre-right is, eh. He's a Democrat; most Democrats are centre-right and most progressives are centre-left. Such is the left wing of the USA.
