    If that’s the best they can do they should be removed from office. People who are unwilling or unable to work with others should not hold public office where that is a basic skill required for the job.

    As for the ploy to win votes, the issues is both the timing and the way it which it was done. Biden announced the first forgiveness stuff going into the midterm elections and they were just promises from an executive order. It likely gave them a boost in votes during the midterms even though nothing happened yet, and ultimately nothing happened, because he didn’t have the authority to do that according to the courts. But the election already happened, so he just gets to say, “my bad, we’ll try again next time”… Now they’ll dangle this BS carrot in front of people through 2024 to try and prop them up in the 2024 elections. Will anything meaningful actually happen? I’m not holding my breath.
