Past the 100-day mark, with positive approval ratings and a far-reaching, nearly US$2 trillion COVID-19 relief bill to show for it, Biden is now facing far more uncertain terrain. The president is racing against the calendar, governing with the most slender of majorities on Capitol Hill while knowing that historically the party that holds the White House loses seats in midterm elections, which would cost Democrats control of Congress after the 2022 vote.
Biden has made personal overtures to Republicans in Congress, but the efforts were aimed at least as much at Republican voters, who have been far more supportive of his plans. A nod to bipartisanship is also important to reassure moderate Democrats such as Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia that the president is at least trying to win over Republicans, even if in the end he might push ahead without them.
The administration also wants to measure the results of the spending to show Congress that its relief programs are succeeding. Biden recalled that it was in that room where, as vice-president, he and President Back Obama watched the final passage of the Affordable Care Act some 11 years earlier. But he remembered that room being packed with people, something impossible to do during the pandemic.
To this point, the public has largely gone along. Gallup polling shows Biden's average approval rating over his first three months in office is 56%, higher than Donald Trump's at 41% but slightly lower than Barack Obama's at 63%.
I HAVE ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD BUT YOU DON'T! NATURE IS YOU, AS YOU ARE IN GOD HE IS IN ME AND YOU ARE IN GOD (GOD IS EVERYTHING) THE WORLD LIVES WITHOUT YOU,BUT YOU DON'T LIVE WITHOUT THE WORLD 'I WILL HAVE TO EXTINGUISH YOU'? I HAVE TO SPEED TIME 'THE WORLD IS MORE IMPORTANT'
Biden might be the darling of the leftists in Canada, but he is still a US president. While talks about him daily, US media rarely talks about our own darling Justin, if ever. The love is not mutual.
Why are children still locked up in cages mr president.
