Biden needs to lead...NOW!

[Anonymous]

Lifelong Democrat who voted for Biden in 2020, but is growing more and more concerned about his lack of leadership so far.

Congressional Democrats are fractured. Progressives are threatening to torpedo the infrastructure bill. Moderates are threatening to torpedo the budget reconciliation bill. Biden is nowhere to be seen. He's neither leading nor deputizing someone to lead his domestic policy agenda. He's doing nothing to unite the factions within his own party behind him. His absence has Democrats tearing into each other while Republicans gleefully stand on the sidelines.

Meanwhile, everything that could go wrong internationally is practically going wrong: The botched exit from Afghanistan, the recent drone strike that killed innocent civilians in Kabul, the botched diplomacy with France over building submarines for Australia, and the Haitian refugee crisis on the border and mass deportation of Haitians back to Haiti, even though a substantial number of people journeyed to the border from somewhere else.

And where is Kamala Harris? After Biden's inauguration she was seen with him in practically every meeting. Now the Vice President appears to be, umm...flipping coins at football games and planning to go on The View. What gives? Did Biden distance himself from Harris after her own political debacles earlier this year? Is Harris distancing herself from Biden? Regardless, a wedge has formed between the President and VP at a very inopportune time.

Biden spoke all about unity during the Inauguration. He's failing spectacularly. Forget about unity with Republicans and conservatives. He needs to start unifying the Democrats...right now. Otherwise, the party is going to take a shellacking next year when they have nothing to show voters after being in power.

"Lifelong Democrat". Sure you are, OP.

“Lifelong Democrat.” Snort. I mean I guess maybe, but there are a lot of “lifelong Democrats” who do nothing but complain about Democrats on here. You want more aggression from Biden? Email the White House and tell him. You’re sick of the Democrats playing nice with the sociopathic, treasonous GOP. Email your reps, too. Same message. No more playing nice - go for the jugular. The GOP is destroying this country and “moderates” like Manchin and Sinema are helping.

When you have DINO's Senema and Manchin, you leave it to the progressives to try to force them into the tent. But bottom line, these two are not in DC to support any Dem successes.

He is a coal guy and she is a "green" funded by Koch.

They ONLY benefit the Dems have right now is judicial appointments and Schumer setting the agenda. Otherwise, there is no "Dem Majority" in the senate.

There really isn't a lot Biden can do about it.

"Nothing to show voters after being in power"

Is this the new Republican talking point after the ones on his catering to the woke progressive agenda and his spending us into oblivion fell flat?

Dem here - I hope that massively bloated set of bills fails. Cut it down to physical infrastructure - which is only $1.5 trillion - and call it a day.

This. Biden did great on Covid which is what I and the majority of his supporters care about. If he gets us high speed trains - even better. But his job is Covid - as shown adroitly in the exit polls from the California recall.

Not your wishlist which doesn’t belong in this Infrastructure bill.

The Covid-19 pandemic remains at the top of voters' minds, with about one-third saying it's the biggest issue for the state, according to a California exit poll conducted for CNN and other news networks by Edison Research.

That's followed by just over one-fifth saying homelessness, 1 in 6 saying the economy and wildfires, respectively, and slightly under one-tenth saying crime. Concerns vary across partisan lines: more than 4 in 10 Democrats call coronavirus their top issue, while only about one-fifth of Republicans say the same. On the flip side, Republicans are more than three times as likely as Democrats to name the economy as their top concern.

Biden did great on COVID *until* he lifted mask mandate pressure and didn't shut down borders on travel from India as Delta emerged (while insanely keeping travel from Europe shut down). Once they took the pedal off of masks, there was no way people were going back to putting on masks. Also letting people traversing through several different countries and coming across the border wasn't really a consistent message that we should be taking the pandemic seriously.

Even if this were the bar, it is better than grifting taxpayers for hundreds of millions of dollars golfing and pushing an insurrection.

How quaint. The only issue with ANYTHING Biden did, or didn't do with COVID is on the moronic GOP who made taking a vaccine a wedge issue.

Lifting mask mandates when people were getting vaccinated was fine. The issue was, not enough people got vaccinated before Delta hit. That is not Biden's fault.

Biden is a modern guy. He watches Longmire on Netflix.

That may have been true in Nov., but since he has managed to eff up so many things domestically and WRT foreign policy, he has a lot of other clean up jobs now.
But, he will fail at the clean up too because his judgment is poor, his policies suck, and he cannot admit that he is responsible for the crap that has happened.

In November he wasn’t even President…

He doesn’t even know how to turn on Netflix unless one of his grandkids put it on for him.
