26. "right wing of the Democratic Party" - aka center-left?
Mon Mar 9, 2020, 05:03 PM
Mar 2020

Which would make Biden center-left. There is no wing of the Democratic Party that is right of center, and the left wing of the Democratic Party are people like Sanders (when he's a D) and AOC. Even Manchin is a moderate and Biden is left of Manchin.

He's trying to be cute by including the "of the Democratic Party" part.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
