There have been a number of setbacks in the last few weeks that have caused alarm among Democrats about the state of the country.

The Supreme Court struck down the constitutional right to an abortion, the country is plagued by gun violence, and rising costs for gasoline, food and other goods have been dealt blows by Biden.

Biden's hands are mostly tied, frustrating Democrats and contributing to the president's political weakness.

The bipartisan bill was signed by the man. Some actions have been taken to lower gas prices. He wants the Senate to change the rules to codify the decision.

The steps were not expected to slow the gun violence plague or bring back abortion rights in states where the procedure is being banned.

Democrats say they voted for Biden to change things and are unhappy with the results.

The steps and statements Biden has taken are not seen as much as they could be.

One top Democratic strategist said it was frustrating. They seem to be doing nothing to put out the fire. They are watching it with everyone else.

The polls show that Americans are gloomy in American life.

The percentage of Americans who have confidence in the presidency has fallen from a year ago.

A majority of Americans think the country is headed in the wrong direction, and just 10 percent think the country is on the right track, according to a new survey.

Biden needs to change course, according to Payne.

At a time when his coalition is thirsty for political clarity and leadership, the president is leaning more in the administrative role. The need to do both needs to be balanced by the president and his team.

The political commentator and former member of the South Carolina state House said on CNN that he was not sure what Biden was doing. I can let you know what he is doing.

We have been sounding the alarm about this for a long time. We can't make promises, hector people to vote, and refuse to use our full power when they do, but we can go after the messenger. We have time to fix this. We need to be bold.

At a Tuesday press briefing, the White House press secretary was asked a number of questions about Biden's lack of fire on certain issues.

Jean-Pierre said he couldn't speak for them or what they were trying to do.

She said that the president has been fighting for the American public since he arrived. It's what matters to him. It's important that he makes sure that we get things done.

Jean-Pierre pointed out that Biden did not play a major role in the gun legislation that was passed after the Texas shooting. Biden announced executive action to protect access to abortion pills and directed the Justice Department to protect women who cross state lines for the procedure after the Supreme Court legalized abortion.

One Biden ally said that people who supported defunding the police and helped ensure congressional majorities were so narrow would be a temptation to brag about how little they knew about the Constitution.

Heye said that Biden is in a bad situation.

Heye said that there are a few reasons that Biden is in this situation.

Someone who can fight is what the base is looking for. He said that you don't have to have a plan to land the punch, win the round or knock down the opponent.

Heye said that Biden's expectations have been too high.

He said that they had a small majority in the House and no majority in the Senate.

The idea that Biden isn't fighting to address issues like climate change, abortion rights, gun violence and inflation is disputed by the White House. He has taken executive actions on guns, climate and voting rights, something he hadn't done on the campaign trail.

The president indicated during an Independence Day celebration at the White House that Biden shares the public's frustration with the country's setbacks.

In remarks to military families on Monday, Biden said that there was reason to think that the country was moving backwards. We have been fighting for the soul of America for over two centuries.

It can be tiring and frightening. We are going to get through this and we are going to see how far we have come.
