The problem you'll see moving forward if Biden goes hard left (which thankfully he won't) is that he won't have the "anyone but Trump" factor influencing the turnout.

That's the reason the "left" did well here - the more left you are, the more enthused you were to go out and vote against Trump. But what happens when Trump isn't a factor?

Basically nobody voted for Biden. Hence the wild celebrations when he won that were basically all about laughing directly at Trump.

The Dem primaries were, in large part, arguments over policy and no faction or candidate (left/centrist) appeared to really stand out. IMO because this race was always going to be a referendum on Tweetie. The Biden campaign won while sticking to this strategy.

Now he gets the chance to prove he's governing for the whole of the country with actual policy geared toward that end. We shall see. I certainly have more hope he will than I did with the last guy.

The only thing I’d add to this is that one of Trump’s tells is that he invariably accuses other people of things he’s doing himself, so there really could have been voter fraud in this election.

We already know what he did with the post, and what the GOP have been doing to suppress votes, so it’s not that much of a stretch from there to actually doing proper fraud (which GOP operatives have been convicted of in the recent past).
