he has been having some problems from some because he is not far left enough. Luckily, however, the Dems seems to have toned them down some.
No...the "Dems" have toned no one down. The truth is that Joe has indicated he's willing to go pretty far left if that's what people want. Even an avowed socialist, such as I can see that getting rid of Trump is more important at the moment than some sort of battle for the soul of the Democratic Party.

The nation is literally at the brink of a civil war. Joe won't spin the wheel to the left towards a distant ideological shore but he'll stop the rightward shift to some extent and perhaps quell the flames of fascism before they roar out of control.

We leftists must play the long game...Joe is a net gain over Trump. He's a single term placeholder and represents four years of calm reasoned leadership during which we will be able to plead our case again among voters. Harris will be his obvious successor but rest assured that we will field a leftist opponent against her.

Good coffee, good weed, and time on my hands...
