[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gilbert B Norman: [QB] Here is a tremendous[URL=https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/22/opinion/thanksgiving-biden-rittenhouse.html] Times[/URL] column that sums up why I voted for Joe - and why I have become disappointed. Why I voted for Joe: [i][list] [*]Gail: I’m happy. Never bought into the idea that President Biden was elected just to not be Donald Trump.[/i] [/list] Why I am disappointed: [i][list] [*]Bret: Despite what you said earlier, I don’t think Biden was elected to be a transformative president the way Reagan or Obama were, both of whom had clear electoral mandates to change America. He was elected to be a steadying presence. Biden’s failed totally so far, partly for reasons that were not under his control, like the persistence of the pandemic, and partly for reasons that were, like the bungled exit from Afghanistan. Either way, he is misreading his mandate, and the new legislation won’t help. It’s deeply unwise to try to change the entire shape of government based on a tiebreaking vote in the Senate. It’s even more unwise to do so when prices for groceries and gas seem to be rising by the minute... Biden is overseeing a combustible mixture of sweeping progressive social change and working-class economic distress — a formula that gave us Trump in 2016 and may give us Trump again in 2024. And all this is on top of the already hyperpolarized culture we have in this country.[/i] [/list] Now I respect, Messrs. Harris and Helfner, you have your reasons to have supported Donald Trump, and why you both would welcome his return to the White House as either the 47th, or as I think the case, the 48th POTUS. Happy Thanx; I'll be celebrating with friends where I'd best keep my thoughts about Joe's disappointment to myself, for his agenda is quite revered where I will be (he: an Educator; she: a Social Worker).
