The Washington Post recently ran a piece about Joe Biden’s unique style of presidenting, which has really come into full view during negotiations over his $3.5 trillion spending bill.
According to the Post, it seems that some Democrats are getting frustrated with Biden’s reluctance to take on a more commanding, leadership-oriented role in the process. This quote really captures the essence of the current atmosphere:
Josh Kraushaar ~ “In Biden’s conversations, the president has served primarily as a sounding board, one official familiar with the discussions said, rather than coming in with a concrete demand.”

Ah.
FobarJones ~ How reassuring that the man supposed to be in charge is considered merely a sounding board. Bravo.
Winston Smith ~ LOL. You mean he's silent and allows other people to decide things.
That’s what it sounds like. But it actually makes a lot of sense if you think about it:
Ben Shapiro ~ As inanimate objects are apt to do.
Good point.
Stephen L. Miller ~ Because he's not really running anything.
He's running the soft-serve ice cream machine in The White House basement ... but, that's all.
94H_Civ_Equiv ~ So ... essentially he's deadweight. Great. Awesome.
Essentially.
Well, yeah ... that's been obvious from the start of his campaign.
Josh Kraushaar ~ Notable quotable from Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI):
“What is it that the president wants? Nobody can even answer that question.”
We’re not sure even Joe Biden can answer that question.
Sure he can! He wants old-fashioned chocolate chip ice cream. That's what he wants.
