Joe Biden

Has he proven to us yet that we Democrats are all on the same side?

Can we all agree on that?

Dems are seldom this unified. Let's hope we get some more shit done before the insanity starts again.

....MOST republicans respect Joe Biden and at least listen to him. As time goes by, we may be seeing them vote with us more and more.

He's 45 days into a term that will be almost 1500 days. It's not all going to happen overnight, especially with the huge divides in both houses.

Biden is the right guy to help close those divides. Not entirely but certainly not a wide as trump made them in his four disastrous years.

If we show discipline, and vote en masse, we will move forward.

If we bicker and quibble we enable obstruction.

Let's battle against republicans, not ourselves.

Yesterday was a great example of sticking together. Result? We won!

how they are achieved, the rate of change, vary widely.

Sadly, politics does often get in the way, especially local, with the current environment and rules.
