Political News
For much of this year, President Biden and the Democrats have ruthlessly vilified Kevin McCarthy, and if the GOP takes back control of the House during midterms, it would leave the country with the worst relationship between the House and the sitting president. There continues to be a worsening polarization within the United States with visible open hostility and more which can become what some say is “combustible” come January.
“They’re going to have to retool their approach. Unless they are comfortable with, you know, continuing an adversarial relationship, I would think it would be in their interest to at least establish more of a conciliatory tone and a rapport,” said Rick Crawford, outlining the issue many people have that both the Republicans and Democrats are pledging “they must apologize first.”
