Dear President Biden,
You have been confronted with an endless amount of huge international problems, ranging from the departure from Afghanistan to current issues impacting Ukraine. None of them have been easy decisions but there was a need to act. President Trump left you with little choice but depart from Afghanistan to complete the process. Reinitiating the war seemed pointless. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was recognized internationally as untenable. Your leadership in supporting Ukraine is most noteworthy.
National issues are different for sure. We have two political parties with virtually no middle ground. You have been left with a nightmare. To get 60 votes to approve your initiatives seems impossible. There is little hope for improvement. You even have problems obtaining 50 votes in the Senate.
Going into the next two years, my advice is that you work with your current conservative Democratic Senators, Joe Manchin and Kristen Sinema. Were you to get your desired initiatives initiated somewhat less than you proposed would be politically a step forward while giving the nation something positive rather than nothing.
I am hoping that the 2022 election will less depressing than anticipated, but I am really concerned that there will be a Constitutional Crisis in 2024, resulting essentially in a virtual dictatorship.
I will remain with you in spirit. If there is anything I could do more that write letters, please let me know.
Sincerely,
Edward J Toomey
