When Democrats contemplate what Biden, Schumer, Pelosi etc. have done with their measly 2020 mandate, they'd be wise to recall some lyrics from "South Pacific": It's a waste of time to worry over things that they have not Be thankful for The things they've got — PolitiTweet.org

That last point is pure speculation - but it seems unrealistic in extreme for Dems to demand more from Biden than they got from Obama, despite Obama's much bigger majorities in Congress. And now, craziest of all, some are fantasizing about a cleansing primary battle before 2024 — PolitiTweet.org

Given his party's weak performance down-ballot in 2020, Biden over-performed on delivering a Democratic agenda. Arguably, indeed, he delivered more than was wise from his own personal point of view. If he'd delivered less for his party, he might be polling better for himself. — PolitiTweet.org

But except for repudiating Trump, 2020 vote outcome did not create the preconditions for major domestic policy change. It was not 1932 or a 1980 or a 2008. The voters fired Captain Queeg, but otherwise pointed the ship "steady as she goes." — PolitiTweet.org

Proximate cause of incumbent defeat: Party split (Taft; HW Bush) Economic Crisis (Hoover) Partly split PLUS economic crisis (Ford; Carter) Trump lost despite a united party and a growing economy. His defeat was a uniquely personal repudiation. — PolitiTweet.org

2020 vote was a personal repudiation of Trump. Otherwise, Republicans did well. Democrats needed to reckon with that outcome, rather than blame their political leaders for not delivering the Moon on a 50-50 party-line vote. https://t.co/fRTh9AYIDx — PolitiTweet.org

When George W. Bush had a 50-50 Senate, GOP recognized limits on what could be accomplished. But Democrats disparage Biden for only passing two huge spending bills instead of three. https://t.co/fRTh9Bgjv5 — PolitiTweet.org
