The irony is he checks all the boxes of Democratic orthodoxy. He's NOT a centrist. He's more left than Shapiro.
I don't know why people think he's some sorta Joe Manchin. He embraces social issues. He talks about trans issues just as well as any other Dem. He doesn't shy away from controversial topics in Kentucky. He just talks about them without shouting. He's not a fire-breather.
