and, of course, we will keep hearing and reading reiterations of the meme that the President does not try to work with the Republican legislators. At this point, I wouldn’t care if he just told them, “Let’s drop the pretense” - but I heard another Democratic commentator this morning chastising the President for not trying to be bipartisan.

Sorry, but this brings out the teacher in me----

The verb “to dive” is a regular verb—its principle parts are dive, dived, dived.
I dive
