Chris Wallace on the Biden Presidency
It is not in good shape. And the fact of the matter is that Joe Biden does not have enough juice.
May surprise you, but I agree with this. Joe is a nice guy, I like him, but the current Democratic Congress needs someone who can gracefully deliver forceful kicks in the ass. The kind that flatten hemorrhoids or create new ones. Joe would make a terrific senior Senator, and a wonderful grandpa I would have loved to leave my children with. I hope for both his sake and ours that he can be happy with one term, then throw all his might into supporting Amy Klobuchar for POTUS. Who would chase Kyrsten Sonoma into a bathroom and paddle her.
How do you imagine 1600 pages of detailed legislation got written? Without ass kicking? Is it not graceful that the stories so far have not been about the constant barrage of ass kicks emanating from the White House but on the strategy and values of the holdouts and contrarians in the governing party?
We will need to see a truly artful, forceful, and inspired run of ass kicking to bring this home, but for where we are and where were I am happy with who has been wearing the boots. I am confident he will kick the whole package over the line no matter what the numbskulls screech about it.
Let Joe get his spending priorities enshrined in the law and watch him aim his kicks at cleaning up business, politics, and culture. He can make bold moves while making a big majority see they are both completely inevitable and totally reasonable. Good old Joe.
