Progressive Tim Canova won't vote for Biden, supports President Trump's policies

SNIP

Canova, who ran for congress twice against Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D), told us that there was no chance that he would support Biden’s candidacy while praising President Donald Trump for putting forth a foreign policy that has lead to two historic Middle East peace deals, and for his trade deals like the renegotiating of the North Atlantic Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).

@JayWeixelbaum
It is journalistic malpractice to call individuals like this progressive. They aren't.

They're populists. It's grievance politics above all else.

progressive incorrectly his whole life and actually means regressive. He just mixed the two terms up as a kid and has been using the wrong one this whole time.

The whitewashing of all the years of women's progress because they were women.
And ya can't have that in the quest for patriarchial domience.

Glad he's finally unmasked the word.
Laid it bare, he did!

Anybody supporting Trump's policies are not "progressive" by any standard.

They are progressives diverting to fascism.
