This is classic Biden. It's classic center-right Democrat speak. The Republicans predictably do something bad decades after they started trying to accomplish it, and centrist Washington Democrats sit around doing nothing. I can't say they betrayed my expectations because this is exactly what they have been doing for the last 20 years.
Yeah this is basically the way the Democrats of operated my entire life and possibly longer.
They claim there needs to be a strong Republican party and that they want bipartisanship. They already are starting off as being More right wing than every single European conservative party or any conservative party in the OECD basically on issues like health care and social policy.
Same with the debt ceiling thing. There was a million ways around that besides caving to the Republicans on cutting food stamps.
