President Biden has distanced himself from the fight for the next House speaker, while his campaign keeps up a steady drumbeat of attacks against Republicans.
President Biden blamed 'MAGA Republicans' for bringing the federal government to the brink of a costly shutdown. Days later, Biden's tone shifted after a group of far-right House Republicans ousted Kevin McCarthy as House speaker.'More than anything, we need to change the poisonous atmosphere in Washington,' Biden said Wednesday, in remarks directed to both parties. 'I know we have strong disagreements, but we need to stop seeing each other as enemies.
Republicans and Democrats alike conceded that McCarthy's ouster in the short term will politically benefit Biden and his party and hurt the GOP.'This certainly reinforces the notion that it's a party in chaos,' Rick Ridder, a Democratic consultant, told Newsweek.Republicans eager to move on from the episode expressed hope that the damage could be limited if the House GOP caucus moves swiftly to approve a new speaker.
