Our Choice: President Biden sets our agenda or Manchin & Sinema do

[bluewater]

That's what this all boils down to.

I choose President Biden.

That's the only thing that makes sense since President Biden has been elected nationally on his agenda, has consulted with party leadership and has the support of the vast majority of Democrats in Congress.

1. We wish President Biden did

But due to separation of powers, the senate and house make or not make it happen.

2. I think we all know how political parties are supposed to work

Political parties and party agendas have nothing to do with the Constitution or separation of powers.

Political parties have a platform and legislative agenda. AND a party leader.

Right now, President Biden is our Democratic Party Leader and has established an agenda and has been elected on that agenda.

Manchin and Sinema are individuals acting on their own behalf.

3. I feel Manchin can be persuaded to come around eventually. Sinema however, has pulled a fast one.

She may as well be in McTurtle's caucus. She's appears now to be a Trojan Horse to our party.

4. You've convinced me about Sinema.
