During the primaries, this was the big progressive *criticism* of Joe Biden — that all he cared about was beating Trump when what progressives really wanted was a politician who would push for sweeping policy change on multiple fronts. — PolitiTweet.org

When I talk about the role of policy positions in Trump's win, people say "his fans don't care about policy, they just want to punish their enemies and crush the left." But that's the point, they *relaxed on policy demands* (no Medicare cuts!) to prioritize enemy-crushing. — PolitiTweet.org

But Biden actually did run on pretty dramatic substantive policy commitments, promises that he has largely tried to enact — only to mostly fail because the congressional election results don't support a big agenda. https://t.co/XHytQEODHl — PolitiTweet.org
