further, in the senate. first, though, how his motivation for putting the impeachment trial behind him, differs from that of republicans, who also want to close the book on it. for starters, president biden wants to focus on covid-relief legislation. more specific, reestablishing a sense of continuity, with the way presidents traditionally operate. he spent the weekend at camp david, with his grandchildren, who gave him this cap. there, and at the white house, he keeps a regular schedule. no cable-news benders or late-night tweets. no morning executive time spent watching even more tv. the president s daily brief is a daily brief, once again. on the weekend, he goes to sunday mass. this picture of presidential normality is both a reflection of who president biden is, as well as what he, clearly, wants to project, politically, at this moment. by contrast, this is the image the republican party has chosen for itself, this presidents day. the republican national committee twe
