Joe Biden's Best Week Ever

[ffr]

The situation has changed with astonishing speed. Biden has salvaged his domestic-policy agenda, his party’s base has snapped out of its torpor, and the economy is showing signs it just might pull through. And while not all these developments are his own doing, nor do they completely extinguish the political danger he faces, they all redound to his benefit. In the span of a few weeks, Biden’s presidency is back from the dead and looking something close to triumphant...

The altered political landscape has been reflected in polls showing the public moving back toward a preference for Democratic control of Congress in the upcoming midterm elections...

What could matter more than the content of the Inflation Reduction Act is the transformed narrative surrounding his presidency...

Several of Biden’s accomplishments are measures his predecessor promised but failed to take. Donald Trump vowed to get Congress to pass a giant infrastructure bill, to let Medicare “negotiate like crazy” on prescription drugs, and to withdraw from Afghanistan. Biden did all these things instead.

Biden likewise co-opted the one defensible, substantive element of Trump’s political appeal: his promise to revive American manufacturing... NY Magazine

It's been like a fulcrum week, indeed! Joe Biden has been and will always be a star in my eyes for saving countless thousands of lives when he took the reins of government, but just as equally bad for the Russians, both domestic and international, with demoralizing news day after day with their lead guy in America under FBI investigation and his enablers in congress getting egg on their faces too. Lovin' it!
