He’s very much a Democrat. The party is a blue dog party more aligned with Republicans than leftists.
Which direction has the party and it’s press decided to punch in the aftermath of their poor election results recently? Dems just foisted a segregationist, war hawk on the presidential ballot rather than a moderate left candidate.
For two cycles now.
Heck, with the exception of Sanders, all the Democratic presidential candidate's have been right wingers. Dean at the time. Got buried by Dem press IIRC. Kucinich was ignored by the press. That’s all I can think of. Rest have been mostly austerity conservative war hawks who happen to be running as a Democrat.
