Biden didn’t say compromise, he said cooperate—and that it’s a choice. Compromise never comes up with Republicans, because they never compromise.
The first stimulus bill was a compromise, and 84% of the money went to corporations. The ACA was a compromise, and Republicans still didn’t vote for it.

The Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, these were all compromises. "3/5 of a person" was a compromise.
Why can’t Democrats pass what is just, fair, and necessary and then fight for it? Use social media. Call on impacted people to march on the Senate & build campaigns in the states of the 3-4 Senators whose support you need.
Then negotiate from a position of strength, because we the people voted for survival—healthcare for all, healing for the planet & our future.
