It’s totally more traditional that what Trump was doing, right? Press Squee!
Biden brings back bipartisan meetings at the White House
President Biden has brought back bipartisan meetings at the White House that diminished under his predecessor, trying to find common ground with Republicans even as they remain far apart on issues related to the next round of coronavirus relief.
What was the point of tons of meetings with Democrats for Trump when Democrats were just going to go moonbat?
Biden’s first meeting with lawmakers in the Oval Office was with Republican senators on the coronavirus proposal and he has since met with bipartisan members of Congress on infrastructure and, later, supply chain issues. Biden’s outreach to Republicans has also extended beyond Capitol Hill to governors and local leaders as his administration grapples with the coronavirus and recent winter storms in southern states.
Right, right, Trump never ever tried to talk to governors and local leaders. The Credentialed Media TDS continues
The meetings are another example of a return to more traditional governing under Biden and he is expected to make them a regular occurrence.
White House spokesman Michael Gwin said that the president is “glad to welcome lawmakers from both parties to the White House to work towards finding common ground on the challenges we face, and he’ll continue to do so throughout his time in office.â€
“Biden’s brand is bringing people together, so it’s always helpful for him to remind voters that he’s trying to unite,†said Democratic strategist Joel Payne. “For now, it helps him stay above the fray.â€
While Biden is making an effort to reach across the aisle, the real test will be whether that engagement yields any results. Discussions with Republicans on COVID-19 relief have brought both sides no closer to a compromise. Democrats have pushed ahead to pass Biden’s $1.9 trillion proposal using budget reconciliation, creating tensions with Republicans.
So, what did this more traditional governing accomplish? Joe and the House Democrats pushed the exact same COVID bill which is mostly not about COVID relief. There were no changes to it to deal with Republican concerns, nothing that will allow it to be voted on the normal way in the Senate. The House vote saw zero Republicans supporting it and two Democrats voting against it. Any Senate Republican who votes for it will get destroyed in their home states. Democrats may lose one or two Dem Senator votes, so they couldn’t even go for reconciliation.
Talking about being bipartisan is light years from actually acting bipartisan. It’s rather like New Year’s resolutions: it’s easy to talk about losing weight. It’s a lot harder to actually do that.
“He’s said he wants Republicans at the table from the very beginning,†said one longtime Biden adviser. “You can’t campaign on that for a year and a half and then not do it.â€
Being at the table is meaningless if that’s all it is. Biden’s previous boss did the same, then blew off the majority of GOP ideas and concerns. Unity and bipartisanship isn’t listening to Republicans then going ahead and doing everything the hard left wants and none of what Republicans want. Many sports teams and players talk big, then go out and lose bigly because they didn’t follow the plan.
Biden has forecast plans to pass a recovery and infrastructure package and Democrats have also introduced an immigration proposal on Capitol Hill, presenting his next tests to work with Republicans. Biden would need Republicans to join Democrats in order to pass an immigration overhaul.
You can bet the recovery and infrastructure packages will be as far left as the COVID bill, and the illegal immigration/amnesty one is chock full of hooking illegals up while paying lipservice to protecting the border and reducing the flow of illegals.
“From the moment Trump won, Democrats were committed to defeating him four years later. The Democratic base had no interest in working with Trump,†said Conant. “Trump never presented himself as a president for all Americans. If you didn’t support Trump, he viewed you as the opposition from Day One.â€
Exactly, so why meet lots with Democrats except on big issues? There was no point. They were #Resist, wouldn’t agree with anything Trump offered no matter how center it was. Biden can have all the meetings he wants, but, he won’t listen, so, Republicans will soon not bother attending.
Joe Biden’s Cabinet Nominees Prove His Unity Claims Are Garbage
In his first address on Nov. 7 to the nation after being prematurely crowned “president-elect†by the legacy media, Joe Biden called for “a time to heal†and urged for “unity.†At his January inauguration, President Biden did the same.
“With unity we can do great things. Important things. We can right wrongs. We can put people to work in good jobs. We can teach our children in safe schools. We can overcome this deadly virus. We can reward work, rebuild the middle class, and make health care secure for all. We can deliver racial justice,†Biden said.
Then Biden signed the most executive orders (15) in his first day than any other U.S. President in history—notably eliminating the Trump administration’s 1776 Commission to properly educate students about America’s founding. His cabinet nominations also do not spell unity. They indicate the opposite.
His cabinet nominees are nuts, he’s ruling by executive order, and nothing he’s doing is anything but doing what the hard left nuts want him to do.

It’s always projection…
It’s the right-wing infected with TDS! You are all obsessed with Him – your Savior, your Messiah! All others who oppose Him are one with Satan!
The entire right has coalesced around this Orange charlatan who has convinced you that only He can be trusted! Only He is the Truth, the Way and the Light. Governments, media, science and scientists, education, organized religions, doctors and all medicine, unions, big Tech, Blacks, Hispanics, corporations, LGBQT people, courts and police, foreign countries are oppressing you and only HE can save you!
He makes you feel like men again. After decades of being run over by the inexorable liberalization of society – gays getting married, transgendered recognized as humans, Blacks allowed to vote, Muslims recognized as Americans, women’s rights, global warming, immigrants, minimum wage… ENOUGH! He said! He hates who you hate! THEY stole His election!
Cult.
William Teach: Biden’s previous boss did the same, then blew off the majority of GOP ideas and concerns.
That’s not correct. The Affordable Care Act incorporated many different Republican amendments, which were included in a futile attempt to garner Republican support. At the time the Senate Majority Leader literally said “The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president” — not recovery from the recession, not healthcare reform, not national security.
The Kiddiez have posted this as fact many times over the past yet fail to offer any of the uh, ‘Republican amendments’ incorporated into Obamacare.
Nothing but their silly little talking points.
Go away.

The truGOP is pushing the lie that the 2020 Big Losses were the result of voter fraud. State level truGOPs have responding by pushing hundreds of voter suppression bills in 33 truGOP states (i.e., Red states).
Will the truGOP leader leave the Confederate White House (Mar-a-Lago) to speak at the truPAC super-spreader event in person?
Will He further urge His acolytes to attack the US? Can’t wait to hear what He has to say.
Why does Rimjob constantly keep seeking an affirmation from Trump supporters that the election wasn’t rigged?
Why does he still continue like Trump has any power over the government at all?
What is he so afraid of?
#BelieveTheLie
Bwaha! Lolgf
“That former guy” is powerless on his own. He’s failed at every thing He’s ever tried – business, marriages, children, governing, elections. Any high school wrestler, male/female/other would kick His fat ass in a fight. Any Chicago south-sider would bitch-slap Him around. So why do you guys follow Him? Cult.
Likewise, cult leaders such as Jim Jones, Mao, Amin, Kim, Putin, Stalin etc were/are powerless themselves but if able to command a group of crazed loons they can be dangerous.
Importantly, the feckless, soulless Republican Party (not all, but most) that has been degenerating the past few decades, supports Him out of fear He may direct His violent mob or obedient voters at them.
Still spewing the commie line of stupid shit, eh Elwood? Grow up bitch! Your family were the Confederates not Trump’s. You owned slaves, not Trump. You are currently involved with occupying the US capitol with armed troops and have the temerity to call others traitors and insurrectionists? You fascists are quite the little lyin’ bitches ain’tcha? What are you afraid of?

“That former guy” has garnered the support of ALL white supremacists, neo-confederates, southern secessionists, and won the votes of the old Confederacy (except VA and GA, which have entered the 21st century). So yeah, I LIKE using Confederate White House to describe Mar-a-Lago. Glad it triggers you!
What are Americans afraid of in this age of “that former guy” and His violent mob of supporters? More violence against the United States of America by white supremacists, neoNazis, Proud Boyz, IIIPercenters, Oat Keeperz, KKK, QAnon crazies and shield carriers like you. Duh. Didn’t you say you sent family members to the Capitol mob? America has been under attack the past four years by a cult leader who promises His reactionary, white, christian nationalist followers that only He can Make America a White, Christian, Conservative Paradise Again. But “MAWCCPA” hats couldn’t be manufactured in China at a price point that allowed His team to make over 90% profit per cap. Anyway, His shit led to a coordinated, but failed, assault on the US Capitol. It was in all the papers, so surely you heard about it.
“That former guy” plans a new Super-PAC, “FIGHT! Back America” to be run by His confederate Corey Lewandowski. Do you think He is forming a new political party, “The MAWCCPA”?
So Rimjob is scared or something.
Be afraid, Rimjob, be very very afraid!
Bwaha! Lolgf

Do you remember my exact statement concerning the Army, Lil Pussy?
Pups,
Jeff has most definitely threatened you. I am laughing at the image of the little ass trying to harm someone. Has he yet figured out if he is a man or woman?
Sorry Rimjob, why don’t you share your exact quotes for all to see since I’ve already done that before.
Whatsa matter Rimjob?

Poor diva and his pet poodle. Both cowards of the highest order.

So Rimjob hasn’t the guts to share his own exact statement with the rest of us?
How hard could that be?
Wonder why he’s so afraid.
Then call others cowards?
Bwaha! Lolgf
