Bernie says Joe isn't doing well enough with cabinet picks. Biden's cabinet positions are generally long-term positions and a reflection of his policies and/or stances in his upcoming presidency. Many progressives believe he is not doing enough, and r/politics discusses if his picks for cabinet and policies going into the presidency are good enough, or whether Bernie's time is over.

>"Wait until he wins the election to criticize him." "Wait until he's inaugurated to criticize him." <- we are here "Wait until after his first 100 days to criticize him." "Wait until after the mid terms to criticize him." "You can't criticize him now, the general election is right around the corner."

He walked back police reform already and he isn’t even in office yet.

Well, give him a freakin' minute. He's not even in office yet. Sheesh.

It makes you wonder how progressives will vote in the midterms and 2024 without the Trump threat.

ITT: Moderates want their boring/privileged lives back.

The "Don't criticise Biden until after mid-terms" argument.

Can we let him get in office please?

The reason to vote for him was almost strictly to get Trump out of office. If you wanted progressive policy, progressives should've done more work in the primaries to get Sanders the nomination. Don't expect career centrist politicians to suddenly not be centrist.

President-Elect Joe Biden needs to fight off a coup and actually get into the fucking White House before he can do shit, Bernie. What the fuck.

Will progressives ever be happy? Biden has picked some progressives and some more moderate people. Add in the fact that he won election based on his policy and campaign. Not on Bernie's policies. If Bernie were president, no way in hell he would be nominating moderates to positions.
