Earlier this week, Joe Biden released his “Unity” platform. Unity should mean compromise. All the factions should have given up something to gain an overall, broad agreement. But Biden’s platform is not that.
My colleague Stacey Lennox has teased just some of its more radical proposals, such as the utter destruction of suburban America that its housing policies would force. That the Democrats would force — force, not persuade, but force — millions of Americans back into urban living while Democrat-dominated cities are also defunding police, giving our cities over to anarchy, and while a pandemic renders our cities yet more vulnerable and dangerous is not merely bad policy.
It’s vicious and insane. Biden’s housing policy is more radical, even than Barack Obama’s was, because he has surrendered it to the far left.
Take Biden’s energy policy. He won the Democratic primary largely by being the only candidate who appeared to be viable in a national election. He’s unexciting but the brand thinking was that he’s basically a Honda Accord. Not flashy, but reliable. Sen. Bernie Sanders generates energy on the party’s left flank, but he is a hard-bitten leftist who never held a private sector job, got himself tossed out of a commune for being a layabout, and who loves Castro and socialism/communism.
Sanders is well outside the mainstream. Likewise Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. AOC wins in her very narrowly drawn, very liberal New York congressional district. She could not win a statewide election in New York at this point, never mind a national one. She is well outside the mainstream, often embarrassing herself on social media without having the self-awareness to realize it.
But not only did Biden elevate the extremist socialist to his campaign, he made AOC his top climate adviser, along with John Kerry.

He needs the votes of Bernie’s and AOC’s supporters.
The politicians and finances of the USA need IMF supervision.
Democrats now proud to prove they are extremist socialist party.
This is why I never understood the DNC directive for all the lesser candidates to drop our and support Biden over Bernie. If they thought Bernie was too hard left/socialist to win, why did they think a senile Biden who has adopted Bernie’s and AOC’s platform would do better? Bernie at least fired up the far left wing of their party.
What we’ve known all along .... Slow Joe is a Sock Puppet for all the leftist crazies trying to stay off stage and out of the sunlight.
Bernie for VEEP!
He can take over after declaring Biden unable to perform his duties under the 25th amendment. (Jan 21st) /s
In other words, “Biden’s Bernie’s Bitch”.
