And why they keep trying to stir up phony controversies out of non-stories. People getting used to being treated better and given more by the government is something they could get used to, and that hurts the long-received wisdom.

Looks like the only people that don't support Joe, are the hard-core deplorable base. Fuck them.

No "reaching accommodation"?

"Can't we all just get along?"

Nope.... fuck 'em.

The Dems reached across the aisle and got their hands bit off. Bipartisanship means doing it their way. And NO... we can't get along with racists and misogynists and bigots and fascists.

Fauci, the federal government's top infectious disease expert, on Sunday lamented the "disturbing" trend of people refusing to get the COVID-19 vaccine if they voted for former President Donald Trump

he learned from PRESIDENT OBAMA. I had read that Joe felt that his boss didn't do enough "self-promotion" regarding the ACA (Obama-Care) and what it meant for so many Americans. You can certainly understand why Obama did it that way - it was his style - and a shocking difference between him and IQ45, who is STILL trying to claim credit and/or praise for things that he never did!

I think he (President Joe) is wise to get out there and 'blow his horn' - but look at how he's doing it: it is not what "he" did - it's what the DEMOCRATS did for Americans! Wise indeed!

It's the kind of thing trump did, not President Obama. He was too humble.

President Biden needs to sell the plan because the lies are coming and it's going to be very ugly as it always is.

he saw what President Obama did (or did not do) and felt that it should have been promoted more. Indeed, he does need to get out there and counter the lies/BS - it's a good thing and they need to know it!

Some republicans in swing states voting for Joe but R for the rest. We have to work on those people knowing Joe's hands are tied if they don't vote totally D for awhile.

For 4 of 10 people to not approve of Biden at this point is a purely knee jerk partisan reaction based on NOTHING!

The polls I have seen, where people are asked what they think about this or that, knowing that 8 could not answer the question without doing some research...

We are often making or guiding policies based on the ignorant feeling qualified to render an opinion on things they know nothing about.
