    I understand the president is not a dictator, there’s no expectation of fiat rule here.

    I also understand that the SOTU is a sales pitch, not a serious legislative agenda.

      I do appreciate the tacit admission of his policy targets.
      Alas, even though you now claim to understand Biden’s hands are legislatively tied, he has since become unserious.

      You really are doing some work moving that target.

        There is a huge difference between a sales pitch and a policy target, you seem to be confusing the two.

        A sales pitch is just rhetoric and can often be disingenuous.

        I see no reason to suggest that economic populism will become a serious part of the Biden policy agenda.
