Summary

Joe Biden delivered his State of the Union this week and focused on wanting to “finish the job”. Can he achieve his goals despite a split Congress? Julie Norman, co-director of UCL’s Centre on US Politics, joins Alex Andreou to discuss the US president’s standing, hopes and the limits to his power in the second half of his first term – and whether he’ll run for a second… “Biden knows the political reality and he knows what’s going to win over independents as he looks to 2024.” “Joe Biden seemed comfortable with the back and forth and he made Republicans look rather silly, if nothing else.” “We can see the State of the Union as a mini launching and a set piece for what a Biden campaign would look like.” Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/bunkercast Presented by Alex Andreou.
