HaHa! Good one. Ever regretted posting something?

Actually, are the Dems as useless as people are depicting them to be? Not according to a guy writing in The Atlantic today:-

In 11 months Biden has done more with 50 senators than Obama with 57:-
Bills signed: $1.9 trillion covid relief + $1 trillion infrastructure
Executive orders: 75, "many of them advancing liberal immigration goals"
Judges confirmed: 40, more than anyone in their first year since Reagan.

The verdict of the Atlantic writer, "Biden's winning big with a bad hand".
One problem in political terms is that Biden isn't a braggart, holding press conferences packed with lies about what a stable genius he is. It would help if there were a Dem mouthpiece to do that for him, but let's not be won over by Trump's bluster and undervalue Biden's quiet, solid achievements just because that's what the headline-hungry media do.

(Trump's bluster, as well as being his natural style, was useful for hiding his great failures: no repeal, no replace, no infrastructure.)
