The vote was against Trump, not for Biden.
To put this in context, Uthamakistan voted against Kimundu, not for Wanjohi Wa Mashati.
You all know how that has turned out for Uthamakistanis. Oh yes... it was a referendum on Trump. I suspect that this will not be a very controversial thread. It is not Joe Biden we should be worried about, it is his Vice President, Kamala Harris. You might want to look up Dick Cheney as a point of reference. Here is a guide: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dick_Cheney
In summary, In June 2007, The Washington Post summarized Cheney's vice presidency in a Pulitzer Prize-winning four-part series, based in part on interviews with former administration officials. The articles characterized Cheney not as a "shadow" president, but as someone who usually has the last words of counsel to the president on policies, which in many cases would reshape the powers of the presidency.When former Vice President Dan Quayle suggested to Cheney that the (VP's) office was largely ceremonial, Cheney reportedly replied, "I have a different understanding with the president."In other words, who's in charge? Biden or Harris? Ponder that. because it happened to bush ii so it shall happen with biden. what type of reach is this? It has already started. There is a hang/hung 50/50 "Parliament". In the event of a tie, Ms. Kamalis has the deciding vote. Wacha ku tetemesha matumbo, Pence was doing the same thing "The Vice President of the United States shall be President of the Senate, but shall have no Vote, unless they be equally divided" (U.S. Constitution, Article I, section 3). Since 1789, 268 tie-breaking votes have been cast. Right now the Senate is split 50/50 but dems will control the senate at this time because the VP is president at the senate. She can only vote when there's a tie but if several senators cross the floor then her vote doesn't matter You can expect Romney to cross the floor when the proposal is sensible.
