The current president is a liberal, though he is not "left-wing" at all. "Liberal" is a horribly misused term in American politics.
"Conservative" is also misused. In reality, Democrats are the conservatives (they tend to keep things the same, or only tinker around the edges). Republicans prefer right-wing social engineering and regressivism, which is far from conservative.
The term is reactionary, not regressive.
Same thing pretty much.
