    That’s an opinion piece, one I disagree with. President Obama is a moderate Democrat.

    yip, Trump is a socialist.

    trade war / tariff amount to Socialism 101.
    too, an outgrowth of Trumps ill-conceived trade war has led to ~ $22 Billion of welfare payment to the farmers by the US Govt.



    even dachuda86 knows that welfare payments are eg of socialism​

    He knows he's outnumbered and that any strong opinions or actions will be reframed as threats or attitude, so he makes sure to get buy ins from the whitest, oldest men in the room when possible. That's not conservative, that's a black guy at a desk job.

    He's moderate dem, which is very close to moderate republican on many issues (it's why they are called moderates).

    If you're looking at a scale that is based on all highly developed countries, then I'd argue that the American moderate left is actually moderate right globally. But for the context of purely American politics, Obama is definitely a moderate dem.

    This is the pivot often taken. adoo just quoted Michael Moore without giving credit because all of his posts are just that. He can't think for himself.

    Conservative who supports divisive Trump types who label all Democrats as socialist especially Obama starting this thread is the ultimate idiotic irony
