What Went Down During President Biden’s Speech To Congress

Scott is hitting on a pretty standard Republican talking point — that schools should fully reopen. And he used it to connect to school-choice plans, which Republicans strongly support.

This is from 2019, but I thought this was a smart story from Bloomberg on how the rebuttal to the State of the Union is not necessarily the best way to launch one’s political career. Scott has publicly said he won’t run for the Senate again, and there is some speculation that he might be a 2024 contender. But if he does run, it might not be because of tonight’s speech.

Scott says Biden’s policies and plans are pulling Americans apart. This is on par with what I predicted earlier: Republicans are going to paint Biden — and Democrats — as too far to the left, regardless of how much they tout bipartisanship.
