I miss Obama. A president that could actually deliver a decent speech and actually bothered to be a politician. A politician should do TWO things: get elected, and convince the electorate about a path forward, including any compromises needed. Obama is the last president that actually did that. As we all know. Trump just doesn't even bother. And before anyone else points this out: yes, I kind of agree, Biden didn't either. Democrats are their own worst enemy, just like republicans are. I really miss Obama. | ||

Your post reminds me of that scene from the West Wing where the president joins a meeting the VP had already started who had opened with: "Surely our first priority is to figure out a way to work with Congress" Then the president joins and is caught up by the note taker and embarrasses the VP with "Our first priority is to work with congress? Surely our first priority is to serve the American people" | ||
