Woke up this a.m. reading stories about the mess that Biden & Dems had made of this year. Then came news of more job growth--5.5 million new jobs in 9 months. Then, tonight passage of a $1.2 T infrastructure bill and a commitment from House Dems to pass the $1.75 T BBB package.
That will make almost $5T in programs to help Americans in Biden's first year & the 5.5 million jobs & getting 80% of American adults vaccinated & lifting half of kids out of poverty & ending America's longest war & advancing a 15% minimum global corporate tax...
...and appointing more judges more quickly than his predecessors & reversing damaging, dangerous Trump decisions & restoring US approval rating in the world to near record levels (after Trump's record lows) & doing all this despite relentless, irrational GOP opposition.
That's a lot for a first year, more than any president in modern history. It's also a lot for one day, quite the turnaround in the narrative. Oh sure, headlines tom'w will spin the achievement to be about the division (and ignore that infra was something DJT couldn't get done.)
But those of you who are reading this...you know the real story. And starting tomorrow, it is up to all of us to make sure everyone else knows, too. Because the stark, startling truth more than anything else is what will drive a Dem victory in 2022...and save our democracy.
