He could also ask him to resign. It would be damaging to Garland’s reputation in the general public sense (the general sense that the public doesn’t follow the day-to-day chronology of events).
He could apply pressure too.
But we know Biden is an institutionalist. Garland is a wimp, never drives more than the speed limit, and is extremely dull and disappointing speaker. I don’t think Biden has any input. I think Biden appointed him simply because Mitch McConnell prevailed in his goal of not allowing an appointment during a Supreme Court vacancy (Obama was a wimp too, wanted everyone to like him when that is not possible). Ended up being just fine as Garland is acting like a super moderate anyways, right down the middle.
What a sick joke. And such a disappointment.
