In reply to the discussion: AOC Hails President Biden As 'A Good Faith Partner' [View all]Tommymac
(7,334 posts)President Joe knows we need to get things done to address income inequality, racial inequality, women's and LBGT Rights, a decaying physical infrastructure and a crippling pandemic.
He knows he has to pull out all the stops, and work with EVERY SIDE to get the right combination of infrastructure renewal programs, tax incentives, tax cuts, medical programs, and social reforms to put the USA back together in a bigger, better way.
I am a progressive - been on the left all my life. I saw and heard then VP Joe speak at the Pittsburgh Labor Day Parade in August 2016. Damn if he didn't sound almost like Senator Bernie in a lot of that speech, and also channeled and supported Hillary's ideas too.
He is a consummate politician who does not let labels stand in the way of getting things done. After that speech, and seeing how he has governed since he has assumed the office of the President in January, just like AOC I respect and support him 110%.
I don't care that he is a moderate, and sometimes pushes ideas that may not be progressive at all. He gets a big pass in my eyes.
In these times, Joe Biden is the best person for the job of President of the USA. Period.
