CNN Reporter Questions Biden’s Agenda in Final Weeks – Could Be Remembered as ‘the Guy Who Was Just in Between the Trump Terms’

MATTINGLY Isaac if you ░░░░░░░░ at the legislative record ░░░░░░░░ the first two years ░░░░░░░░ doesn t have much ░░░░░░░░ over the course of ░░░░░░░░ last five decades right ░░░░░░░░ that s a lot ░░░░░░░░ what they ve been ░░░░░░░░ the last couple months ░░░░░░░░ s been trying to ░░░░░░░░ out all the money ░░░░░░░░ was already signed off ░░░░░░░░ there to furnish that ░░░░░░░░ But in terms of ░░░░░░░░ people view the president ░░░░░░░░ now I think what ░░░░░░░░ stunning to me the ░░░░░░░░ Quinnipiac University poll his ░░░░░░░░ is at 38 percent ░░░░░░░░ now In December of ░░░░░░░░ Donald Trump s approval ░░░░░░░░ he d lost the ░░░░░░░░ was 44 percent Now ░░░░░░░░ was pre January 6 ░░░░░░░░ January 6 his approval ░░░░░░░░ 34 percent That s ░░░░░░░░ of within the margin ░░░░░░░░ where Biden is right ░░░░░░░░ And Donald Trump had ░░░░░░░░ 6 DOVERE Right MATTINGLY ░░░░░░░░ Where are we right ░░░░░░░░ legacy wise DOVERE He ░░░░░░░░ I think you re ░░░░░░░░ a historic first couple ░░░░░░░░ years in office more ░░░░░░░░ on the domestic front ░░░░░░░░ anybody going back to ░░░░░░░░ Johnson can claim credit ░░░░░░░░ I do think that ░░░░░░░░ you ve seen is ░░░░░░░░ slow receding into the ░░░░░░░░ from Joe Biden here ░░░░░░░░ m going to do ░░░░░░░░ I m going to ░░░░░░░░ up a West Wing ░░░░░░░░ here There s a ░░░░░░░░ on the West Wing ░░░░░░░░ John Spencer as Leo ░░░░░░░░ the White House chief ░░░░░░░░ staff says he s ░░░░░░░░ trying to rally the ░░░░░░░░ And he says we ░░░░░░░░ do more we can ░░░░░░░░ more change in one ░░░░░░░░ in this building than ░░░░░░░░ will in a lifetime ░░░░░░░░ we leave the building ░░░░░░░░ is not the approach ░░░░░░░░ Joe Biden has been ░░░░░░░░ at least publicly since ░░░░░░░░ election certainly and even ░░░░░░░░ he ceded the nomination ░░░░░░░░ Kamala Harris But there ░░░░░░░░ things that he could ░░░░░░░░ doing through executive authority ░░░░░░░░ lot of things that ░░░░░░░░ could be doing would ░░░░░░░░ put a target on ░░░░░░░░ for Donald Trump to ░░░░░░░░ after first It does ░░░░░░░░ seem like taking another ░░░░░░░░ now is the kind ░░░░░░░░ running through the tape ░░░░░░░░ that White House staff ░░░░░░░░ said he and the ░░░░░░░░ building is approaching things ░░░░░░░░ I think it s ░░░░░░░░ really difficult thing for ░░░░░░░░ Biden to know that ░░░░░░░░ came into the presidency ░░░░░░░░ a rejection of Donald ░░░░░░░░ And here he is ░░░░░░░░ replaced by Donald Trump ░░░░░░░░ think back to an ░░░░░░░░ that I did with ░░░░░░░░ Biden He d been ░░░░░░░░ for about three weeks ░░░░░░░░ was talking to him ░░░░░░░░ a book that I ░░░░░░░░ And I part of ░░░░░░░░ takeaway that I had ░░░░░░░░ it was him trying ░░░░░░░░ assert himself as Joe ░░░░░░░░ the guy who got ░░░░░░░░ president Not just Barack ░░░░░░░░ s vice president not ░░░░░░░░ the guy who beat ░░░░░░░░ Trump But now that ░░░░░░░░ part of who he ░░░░░░░░ and it may define ░░░░░░░░ he is A couple ░░░░░░░░ before the election I ░░░░░░░░ a conversation with a ░░░░░░░░ person in the White ░░░░░░░░ and I said if ░░░░░░░░ loses most of the ░░░░░░░░ that Biden is going ░░░░░░░░ be remembered at least ░░░░░░░░ the short term is ░░░░░░░░ guy who was just ░░░░░░░░ between the Trump terms ░░░░░░░░ no that s not ░░░░░░░░ At this moment that ░░░░░░░░ the way that he ░░░░░░░░ acting.”
