CLR Show 1922. Air Date April 5, 2024. The pure obstructionist/do-nothing mode of the republican congress has prevented any number of positive, democratic-sponsored laws from being passed, but should not obscure the fact that Joe Biden has done a great deal with the few legislative tools he has. For democrats to focus on what he may not have accomplished in full is wrong-headedness in the extreme. Marvel instead on what he has been able to do and consider what would happen if he were not available after 2024 to prevent republicans from deconstructing the Constitution and ending America's leadership role in the world. With Friday Co-Host, David Bach.
