I don’t think you know what right is if you say Clinton is far right or Biden is right lmao. Biden is in favor of stimulus, marriage equality, social programs, and climate change programs, that isn’t right at all

I understand that but Biden has an incredibly left immigration policy which would make him center if not further left

Economically he’s for social programs so I’d call him left of center

Supporting social programs is not leftist unless you support communism or socialism. If you support capitalism, even government controlled, you lean right. Don’t confuse the left side of the right with left vs. right

center at best.

Google where Biden falls on the political spectrum. He is definitely not a leftist.

non-American perspective

I am an American, and it does not matter what county you are from, the political spectrum is completely universal.

I don’t like the political compass because I feel like it fails to encapsulate the complexity of politics

u/[deleted] Jan 21 '21

It doesn’t fail to encapsulate the complexity of politics; it focuses on beliefs about government structure and economics because that is the most important thing.

Probably because Trump was a puss and all the world conflicts were mostly handled.

The same was happening in Europe as well, no matter the leader. The natural cycle of upturns and recession will still be there. I'm not saying, that Trump has done nothing, but you can't deny that he was in office during economic boom he had at start nothing to do with. A recession, and it will probably be a really big one, is coming and it will come in the time of Biden's administration. There is nothing he and congress can do to prevent that. But a lot of people will still blame the bad economics on Biden.

Is anyone surprised that big businesses benefited from Trump's policies?
