(Washington, DC) — U-S Senator Chuck Grassley says he knows President Biden is capable of being a bipartisan dealmaker from his time in the Senate. He says the question is: will the president’s left-wing base let him do it? The Iowa Republican was responding to Biden’s Wednesday night message. He says the president campaigned on unifying a divided nation but has done very little to back up those words. Grassley says congressional Republicans are willing to work with the administration, but cutting them out of the process – “like he did on the COVID package and may do on infrastructure” – is no way to unite the country.
