    Definitely not. Biden is being far too assiduous at trying to enforce unsustainable laws to keep the bigots happy. He needs to open up and let the people in, Once we see how much better off we will all be the fearmongering Republicans will be gone.

    By letting people in, do you mean letting them in without screening and no control?

    Good thing I didn't expect you to support your claim....otherwise I might've been let down.

    No, we should screen for wanted criminals and we should require people to get all the shots necessary to protect us from contagious diseases That's it though.

    I don't know, and neither do you. I know it should be, and that should be all.

    How do you screen nearly two hundred thousand per month? And that only includes those that are caught. They estimate that more than that go through undetected.

    If you've been paying attention to the news Biden's agenda is in trouble not because of Republicans but because members of his own party don't like it.

    A computer check for wanted status doesn't take long

    Try again and this time put some effort into making sense.

    So. Some guy walks in and says my name is Gustaf Pesanti and it comes back with no wanted bulletins. You consider that adequate?

    What if he uses a phony name? If he is wanted, do you think he will use his real name?

    Mitch does have party unity going for him. But Manchin and Senima are DINO's, and just barely.

    Why should the republicans support a Biden bill when the democrats can't agree on it?

    As an outsider to the USA I find it interesting how both the left and the right point at each other and accuse then of lining the pockets of big pharma, etc.

    You will read the above from a conservative, and then usually the same person will balk at the idea of universal single payer health care, doing away with big health insurance, and negotiating with immense bargaining power against big pharma.

    You had me until the final line. No, Biden will not be one of your greatest presidents. Blundered the Afghanistan withdrawal pretty horribly.

    The VP is a diversity hire, a phony and a hack.

    The CDC is in bed with big pharma. It’s a revolving door between pharma and government. Don’t expect that to change by replacing the market with inefficient government.

    Better strawman can be constructed with a tad more effort.

    That sounds about right. But it isn't a question of political party or left and right. You are going to have that regardless.

    Yes neither Manchin nor Senima want to spend so much on the human infrastructure bill. That said are you saying they both belong in the more fiscal Conservative party (GOP)?
