In record time. No other recent President has managed to do such a thing in as little time as it has taken Joe Biden to do so.
People, and there are many of them, who are cautioning people about Biden's inability to get things done need to take another look. He has already broken records with the bill he signed yesterday.
There's much more to come! Just watch and you'll see.
You Go, Joe!

(2,009 posts)This current guy has a competent team working with him toward set goals, as opposed to government by tweet, where TFG had marginally competent sycophants who had to come to work dreading/wondering what new direction their work would be headed after some 4 AM toilet-tweet.
It's a lot harder to create something than to destroy something, but Biden's team has already managed it.

If so, that would explain a lot.

(146,325 posts)He's also setting a new standard for public appearances. He signed that bill, saying just enough words, and then moved on to the next job. The reporters who were there for the signing made asses of themselves, yelling questions as he left the room.
He came in there to sign the bill, said a few words, and then left. He didn't praise himself. He praised those who had passed that bill, instead.
He is a Real President!

(10,839 posts)With the scope of his vision and his ability to get things done. His experience in legislative matters and a bird's eye view of the Executive (the good and the bad), offers him a unique understanding of what is needed in putting the train back on the track, and then making the track better, more sturdy.
In addition, he has an eye for talent and expertise to get the job(s) done. Trump's boast has finally been fulfilled: Only the best people. And the man is genuinely compassionate and empathetic, something entirely missing in the last Administration, something I think the country has needed during the dark days of this pandemic.
It's a winning combination for the American public. It's a winning combination for our Republic.
GO JOE, indeed!

(146,325 posts)In that, he is the complete opposite of the former guy. Instead, he ran and won because he wants to do good for the people of the United States. So, he is choosing smart, competent, experienced people to help him with that.
He's not President to get acclaim. He's President to get the job done.
