Seeing as trump got about the same amount of votes as the last election, the deciding factor was the amount of "Democrats" that stayed home. I doubt there is much overlap between those who voted for Obama and then saw what trump did the first go around and said yeah, they want some more of that.

I'm taking biden's voting record as proof he was a centerist. The media plays whatever makes them the most money. 24hr news networks need to die off. It's painfully obvious when articles like this.

I agree being a centerist is suicide. The left needs to pull the right back to the middle a lot more than the other way around.
