LOL, primary him in West Virginia?  Good luck with that!  West Virginia voted for Trump 70% to 30%.  You think a far left Democrat is gonna win an election there?

Never know until you try. if you run a progressive and lose, you haven't really lost anything when the alternative is a DINO like Manchnin.

Complete nonsense.  Machin is very much a democrat, but the party very far left.  There's no room for the middle of the country anymore.

The party is very left, and yet you have argued that Biden won't be able to accomplish a progressive agenda because the party is too right.

LMAO

He voted in line with Trump 51.2% of the time in the last session. In 2019-20, he voted against a majority of Senate Democrats 174 times (24.8%) compared to the average Senate Democrat who voted against his or her party 11.0% of the time. He's a Republican.

Maybe some day, Democrats can even win seats in Georgia.

I'm still cackling at the idea of a party led by Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi is "very far left" but I guess when you're somewhere between Thatcher and Pinochet on the spectrum everyone looks far left.

He's elected to represent the people of his state.  The people of his state voted for Trump to the tune of 70%.

Biden is somewhat centrist, but Pelosi is a far leftwing San Fransciso liberal.  Cackle all you want, it's all you have.

Nancy Pelosi, the multi-millionaire who regularly strangles any progressive measures from her own party and is basically an establishment puppet, is a far leftist. Staggering stupidity, even from you. I hope when you die you give your body to science so they can figure out how a guy with a glob of rancid oatmeal where his brain should be figured out how to use the internet.

What would you call someone who represents Republican, votes with Republicans and supports the Republican president more than 50% of the time, it's right on the tip of my tongue but I know it starts with the letter R.

Barely more than 50%.  I'd call him somebody representing his constituents.  It's a Republican state, and not by a little, by a whole lot.  Go ahead and primary him.  You'll just end up with a Republican taking that seat, which is going to be what happens anyways.  Or he might just switch parties.  Maybe soon!

Watched Biden's press conference. He is done with Trump since Wednesday. When asked about Trump not attending the Inaugural he said that is one of the only things he and Trump agree on. When asked about Pence attending, Biden said he would be very welcome. He absolutely trashed Cruz, Hawley etc while being very complimentary to other Republicans who had reached out to him, mentioning McConnell and Romney by name.
