Biden succeeds But still needs ten Republicans, so we shall see To the statement "The last president failed at this Biden succeeds" . Success is in the eye of the beholder and cherry picking the opinion articles to prop up who ever is in charge weather it be democrat or republican isn't proof of success and is usually used only to mask the deficiencies of other areas such as rising gas prices, created border crisis, inflation due to massive infrastructure deals and such . The first thing that stuck out like a sore thumb on the posted article is "Opinion" so of course it will prop up the idea of it being a good thing when if there were a actual reading of the bill we would probably all find out like most other bills put through with any president that there is a ton of useless spending known as PORK ! One side goes along with the other resulting in a "bipartisan bill" so this side gets their pork & gives in so the other side gets their pork but just because you put lipstick on a pig it's still a pig !! Sorry but in a opinion article posted i would find it hard to believe what it is saying due to the fact that there are a lot of your opinions out there & opinions of yours or others that you believe in hole heartedly that i have some skepticism about - just saying Tibs ... Although there have been a couple of things i have agreed on with you but they have been few & far between but i guess we can at least agree to disagree ! 1
unbillievable Posted June 25, 2021 Posted June 25, 2021 Didn't Obama already spend 2 trillion on Infrastructure?
TSOL Posted June 25, 2021 Posted June 25, 2021 Is mortgaging our children's future really success? How much is our country in debt now? Who is paying off this debt? I think we all know what happens when you keep putting things on the credit card without a plan of making the payments. And you can't keep leaning on the working class
SoCal Deek Posted June 25, 2021 Posted June 25, 2021 So the Congressional Democrats locked arms and refused to agree with, or work on, anything proposed by the last President....and that goes down as his failure? Classic!

If something gets done for the American people, that's OK too, but the driving force is making sure that Chuck, Nancy, Joe and others can all go to their offices for decades on end, take three hour martini lunches with lobbyists, and conduct their own version of a junior high cat fight in front of the lap dog media... all at the HUGE expense of the taxpayers. 1
B-Man Posted June 25, 2021 Posted June 25, 2021 https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/byron-yorks-daily-memo-bidens-reckless-threat BYRON YORK: Biden’s reckless threat. Biden, Pelosi, and Schumer “literally pulled the rug out from under their bipartisan negotiators,” said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. As for the president, McConnell said, “It was a tale of two press conferences — endorse the agreement in one breath and threaten to veto it in the next.” GOP Senator Lindsey Graham, who was one of the bipartisan group of 21 negotiators, was much more blunt. If Biden is going to tie the two bills together, Graham told Politico Playbook, “He can forget it! I’m not doing that. That’s extortion! I’m not going to do that. The Dems are being told you can’t get your bipartisan work product passed unless you sign on to what the left wants, and I’m not playing that game.” Graham said most GOP senators, and even some inside the bipartisan group, did not know the Biden-Pelosi-Schumer plan. “Most Republicans could not have known that,” he told Politico. “There’s no way. You look like a f—ing idiot now. I don’t mind bipartisanship, but I’m not going to do a suicide mission.” And that was that. The bright, shining bipartisan deal instantly became much less than it seemed. “On the infrastructure deal, Biden’s word lasted about two hours,” York concludes. Was this and Biden’s F-15s and nukes ad-lib a bit of what was called in the Obama era “stray voltage?” As Allahpundit noted his post on the latter Biden debacle, he noted that Bombs-Away Biden may have wanted take the spotlight off of a report that he was planning to the worst thing of all in the far left’s eyes: refund the police. Acting like a hardliner on guns helps to take the spotlight off that. As he added, “Dems are almost certainly going to lose the midterms regardless but if Biden can convince swing voters that he’s at least trying to address their biggest policy anxieties he might be able to hold down the losses.”

The White House doubled down on the strategy, meanwhile, saying it should have come as no surprise. democrats are grifters. Edited June 26, 2021 by Unforgiven
