I wish networks would just show the returns and not “call” states or races. It doesn’t mean anything. It’s not an official result, but merely a projection of an official result. Blaming Fox for projecting the state for Biden is kind of like blaming the scoreboard operator if your team loses.
Having said that, Trump would need 66% of the remaining vote to win the state, and since he’s gotten less than 50% throughout the first 98% of the count, that’s a pretty safe projection."You can't fix stupid." Ron White

Biden isn't doing anything extreme for two reasons: 1. He doesn't want to, and 2. Dems won't have the Senate. That might actually be a good thing for Biden since he will have a ready-made excuse for not enacting sweeping change.
Joe Biden get elected for one reason: He wasn't Donald Trump. The only mandate he has is a mandate to rebuild a functional government and behave with some semblance of sanity and civility. He seems to know that, as well.
In a broader sense - the Democrats need to find a message that will help them win elections in middle America. They have a fractured platform right now, and nobody can figure out their Party stance. Take Healthcare for example, and look at what the Democratic Primary candidates said: It ran the gamut from Bernie's 'immediate Nationalized Health Care' to Biden and Klobuchar wanting to essentially keep the current system but add a public option. What to the Democrats, as a party, want to do? Nobody really knows.
Your other comment about Pelosi 'removing him is just paranoid insanity. I'm hoping that was a joke and you don't really believe that there is some sort of plan to remove Biden and install Harris. If you really think that is the case, I believe you need to take a deep and objective look at why you think that.Eat Donuts!
