He's getting ready to sign a $1.9T relief plan that even Larry can't bitch about.
Why would I bitch about it?
My June pipe dreams have come true beyond my wildest expectations...
Biden focused on the 2 real issues he had to, Covid-relief and economic relief. with a side of bacon. And most everybody likes bacon.
the goal was to get America healthy and working again back to schools, and happy going into the '22 elections.
I'm glad you're happy Larry.
so am I.
He's only 55 days in.
I'd temper my expecations for the next 55 days. A gas tank filled with $1.9T should be good for a few miles. IMO it will accomplish a lot, economically and politically.
IIRC, I posted last year covid-economy-infrastructure-jobs-fixing O-care voting rights, and some greening of america on the domestic side, and rebuilding-repairing our standing with our historic foreign allies would be ambitious, but realistic and popular programs for Biden to pursue, and to set himself and the party for '22.
IMO those would be tough for the Repubs to run against. I still feel that way. I expect Biden to put the Repubs feet to the fire and vote on many of these and related issues. I expect Biden won't mind losing (like the minny wage issue) on many for political posturing reasons going into '22. IMO2 he'll be happy with putting the Repubs in a tight cramped box. To let them out would be a mistake. At some point ('22) they will face constituents asking them why they hate americans.
So far Biden has played it smart, I expect him to do continue to do so.
YMMV
