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.


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.


No! Lifting mask mandates when a new variant from a highly populated country was emerging was NOT fine. I remember Fauci on TV at the beginning of June saying that he was concerned about the new variant in India and that was around the time that they stopped pushing the mask mandates and states let people who claimed to be vaccinated go mask-free.

Nevermind the fact that the vaccine doesn't stop you from getting the virus, kids under 12 still don't have approval to get the vaccine and everyone is out and about in the hot summer months.

This was handled terribly.

No, pfizer has said that they are going to submit for FDA approval. They still don't have it and we certainly didn't have it over the summer when they lifted the damn mask mandate and let Delta spread all over the place.

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…


But, you, or the pp is essentially claiming that is why he was elected.

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.


Anyone but Trump, right?

If people had continued to get vaccinated at the same daily rates in May, June and July as had happened in March and April, then the impacts of Delta would have been far less. But, since that didn't happen - to no fault of Biden, then it is what it is. Sadly, the number of GOP dying is disproportionate to the US population. Oh well.

In the same way you don't use one strategy to get us out of the pandemic, we should not have just relied on vaccinations alone. masks are effective, along with distancing and hand washing. All of those things should have stayed firmly in place until this thing was actually under control. And again - kids under 12 could not be vaccinated and as of today, still can't.

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.


This. He is a president with no real majority behind him. He's not a king. Those "life long dems" (sure, Op, sure) who expected some huge game-changing agenda with the house and esp the Senate makeup he has to work with . . . well, they don't understand government very well.

I don't know, if Breitbart is to be believed, then Biden's handling of COVID was a brilliant 6 dimensional chess move.

Yes, which is why GOP Governors should have supported these efforts. You are forgetting, we don't live in an authoritarian state (yet) where the President can just mandate what people can and cannot do.

And still no therapeutics? What are the odds.

Biden is a GREAT leader! I am so glad he is our President!

It's sad when someone raises legitimate concerns about her party and her party's leadership (all for the sake of her party), she's immediately doubted or called a troll.
