Edit: Since I’m getting many replies while at work, I thought I’d do a blanket statement for a lot of the comments.
-Maybe it’s time we as Americans ask for massive legislation around term limits, public records of elected officials, equal campaign money, public records on donors, banning lobbyist jobs for former politicians, overturning Citizens United, etc.
My parents are conservative, and do you know how the right wing media is twisting this? "Biden can't put together a bill that a single republican would vote yes for"
Like it didn't go through debates and concessions in both the house and senate for weeks just to have a grand total of 0 republicans vote yes. It honestly baffles me that people allow a narrative like this to be twisted like that

Republicans: We need mutual cooperation, as long as it's only for what we want.
