He’s running against Donald Trump for now….
After decades of working in Congress and as the countries Vice President?
He is holding,ding on the basic of American politics….
Compromise…
THAT has NIOT been Donald Trump or Republicans way mostly since the 2010 elections where Republicans owned Congress until this year’s return of a Democratic majority in the US house…
While a lot of Progressive/Lefties are uncomfortable with Biden’s ways right now…and other Democrats running for office….
Biden seems to defending his point of view…
If he continues to run on it and the polls and voters support him?
He just COULD be making a path for a Democrats and Republicans to set things back a decade in the way American politics works…
Maybe…..
As Joseph R. Biden Jr. made his way across Iowa on his first trip as a 2020 presidential candidate, the former vice president repeatedly returned to one term — aberration — when he referred to the Trump presidency.
“Limit it to four years,” Mr. Biden pleaded with a ballroom crowd of 600 in the eastern Iowa city of Dubuque. “History will treat this administration’s time as an aberration.”
“This is not the Republican Party,” he added, citing his relationships with “my Republican friends in the House and Senate.”
There is no disagreement among Democrats about the urgency of defeating Mr. Trump. But Mr. Biden’s singular focus on the president as the source of the nation’s ills, while extending an olive branch to Republicans, has exposed a significant fault line in the Democratic primary.
Democrats, like Senators Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, see the president as a symptom of something deeper, both in a Republican Party overtaken by Trumpism and a nation cleaved by partisanship. Simply ousting Mr. Trump, they tell voters, is not enough.
It’s a debate that goes beyond the policy differences separating a moderate like Mr. Biden from an insurgent like Mr. Sanders, elevating questions about whether the old rules of inside-the-Beltway governance still apply. And it has thrown into stark relief one of the fundamental questions facing the Democratic electorate: Do Democrats want a bipartisan deal-maker promising a return to normalcy, or a partisan warrior offering more transformative change?….
