President-elect Joe Biden argued on Tuesday that his administration would not be simply an extension of former President Barack Obama’s presidency as he begins to roll out his Cabinet and advisory picks.
"…we face a totally different world than we faced in the Obama-Biden administration,” Biden told NBC News correspondent Lester Holt
Oh really? Sooner or later we need to come to terms with the fact there is covert intel indicating Biden was born in Malaysia.
Psst, pass it on.
I have a very ambitious, very progressive agenda
I am glad to hear this, but must ask… By whose standards? I seriously doubt that his agenda will be progressive by ‘progressive democrats’ standards… but I believe they will be considered downright socialist by Republicans.
The President-elect also stated that he has considered appointing a Republican who voted for Trump for a Cabinet position because “the purpose of our administration is, once again, uniting.”
Please, please do this, but make it a Republican senator from a state with a Democratic governor.
“Lester Holt always step in same river repeatedly” — Old Welsh Saying.
As they used to say on Seinfeld, “Not that there’s anything wrong with that…”
It will be radically centrist!!!
Did someone ask him this stupid question?
Like a third Obama term would be horrible?
I guess I should read before I post basically the same comment!
Mr. Holt: “what do you say to people who say …”
That’s actually a pretty strong and very apposite statement, and speaks directly and IMHO appropriately to the enormous damage done by the Trump regime.
It’s also another warning shot across the bow of any McConnell-ites who are just thinking they’ll rinse/repeat their obstruction of Obama.
Because then the motherfuckers are going to have to face POTUS 47.
Well … first he still has to put up with 55+ more days of this crap
And honestly … if Biden can effectively rectify the damage created by Trump
President Donald Trump is expected to join his attorney Rudy Giuliani in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, on Wednesday, where Republican state lawmakers are holding a “hearing” on allegations of fraud in this month’s election, two sources familiar with the plans told CNN.
To do the political equivalent of Pickett’s Charge?
We can hope
I quite literally broke down watching that interview.
Just think - Obama took over from a disastrous president who was actually trying to fix some of the mess he had created, but poor Joe is being handed the reins by someone who is actively working to make the worst possible situation even “worser”. Watching him introduce his cabinet yesterday actually brought me to tears.
I will never say “It can’t get much worse” again.
McConnell and various other Republicans, in league with Trump, will actively work to undermine and sabotage Biden throughout his term. It will start in earnest with Senate hearings on the Cabinet nominations, and go to hell from there. Biden is going to be pushing a chain uphill for four long years.
Bush was not Trump
It’s not the same at all
+1 And panic is unstrategic and despair (or blanket cynicism) is lazy.
