Biden and the party Montreal Magazine

Throughout the election campaign, as well as on the many occasions since then, Joe Biden has repeatedly reiterated that he will reach out to his rivals and that he wants to be a united president. If the polls point in the direction of positive results among voters, his Republican opponents do not appear to be intrigued by this prospect.

After years of division and aggressive rhetoric from a president who never sought to speak on behalf of all of his fellow citizens, it was clear that Joe Biden would present himself as a patriot open to negotiation and compromise. A lofty goal and reassuring tone that quickly met constant opposition.

Joe Biden did not stick to his goal of supporting more Americans who could reach $ 1,400. He agreed to reduce the number to speed up the process.

I admit that I do not fully understand the current strategy of the Republicans. Whether in the 2022 mid-term elections or the 2024 presidential election, voters risk tying the end of the crisis to the Democrats and the current administration.

Since taking office, President Biden has never supported the demise of the celebrity DisabledThis Senate measure permits the opposition to systematically obstruct. He did so because he knows so well that her support will tarnish her uniform lacquer, but also because abandoning this rule may haunt the Democrats when they finally become the minority again.

Despite his uniform words and respect for parliamentary tradition, Biden may be forced to reconsider his stance on Disabled If he really wants his promises to come true. The political polarization has reached the point that those around him may actually be considering this option. One should then be relentlessly courting a moderate democratic senator like Joe Mansheen, who is an extremely conservative country. For now, he is the only bulwark between Republicans and the Democratic majority on this issue.
