President Biden will be sworn in as President in a divided and polarized country that is being ravaged by a terrible virus and mired in recessionary economic conditions. Most likely he will
have an intransigent Republican-controlled Senate that will greatly limit his room for maneuver and make it impossible for him to undertake some of the biggest legislative changes he was
proposing for his first year in office. Nevertheless, many of these challenges provide Biden with an opportunity that his predecessors did not have—which is that he can more easily preside
over rapid improvements and thus use his first two years to make some progress while building a stronger case for his ideas, and if necessary to implement them, his party in the future. An

second mandate.
