We have just 10 months until midterms, it’s time to re-orient our thinking. We learned in 4 years of Trump that the presidency has tremendous power-Biden should start enacting BBB through EO‘s. This will give enough time for them to take affect & show the American people results.
Schumer‘s people told me it would pass before August break. They told the indivisible groups in NY by the end of Sept. They just cannot get it done, and many of our Democratic Senators lack the urgency needed for the time we are in. We need to get on another path starting now.
I know executive orders are not ideal, but what Biden has proposed is tremendously popular, and will also help us in midterms and help him get reelected. If these steps are popular with the American people, which they will be, they will not be overturned by the next president.
Credit where credit is due: the EO’s are @RepJayapal’s idea, which I tweeted about earlier, and it is a good one!
Even though so many have been agitating for it, the Senate Democrats are not going to replace Schumer as leader, even though he is failing in the job. It’s collegiality over country. It’s time we consider other paths with 10 months until midterms.
