McConnell says Biden's unity message in speech didn't match plans not 'designed' for 'bipartisan buy-in'
Fox News
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said on Thursday that President Biden's address to a joint session of Congress showed the president is not serious about seeking bipartisan compromise despite his "understated" tone.
McConnell, R-Ky., said on the Senate floor that there's a wide gap between how Biden presents himself to the public and the details of what he's actually doing in office. The president talked about unity and togetherness while reading off a multi-trillion dollar shopping list that was neither designed nor intended to earn bipartisan buy-in. "Last night President Biden delivered his first address to the joint session of Congress and today marks his 100th day in office. President Biden is a likable person... but while the tone of his remarks were understated, the content was anything but," McConnell said.More Related News
