President Joe Biden conducted his speech to congress this past Wednesday, and Fox News Sunday anchor Chris Wallace praised the commander-in-chief.
Wallace highlighted some of Biden’s talking points in his speech and believed that everything the president covered would appeal to Americans, which The Hill relayed.
“You know, I think this is going to be a popular speech with the American public,” Wallace said. “He offered a lot of stuff. $4 trillion will buy a lot of stuff, from millions of jobs to child care to community health centers, all kinds of stuff, community colleges.”
The actions Biden suggested during his speech would indicate a massive increase in government involvement and spending. Despite these circumstances, Wallace mentioned that the Biden administration is gambling on a post-pandemic American public who has become less wary of the government.
“I think they’ve made a calculation that after COVID-19, people have come to have a different feeling about government,” Wallace said.
“They now feel more trusting and more the need of government and so where this might have turned a lot of people off, and probably still will, they believe the majority of people are going to say, the government is here, and they’re here to help you.”
