Crisis into opportunity. Setback into strength.’"

HARTFORD, Conn. President Joseph Biden addressed a joint session of Congress for the first time of his presidency Wednesday, detailing how America is doing with the COVID-19 pandemic and optimistically pointed to new post-pandemic growth.
On paper, it appears to be the kind of lopsided contest that even the Vegas bookies wonât take any action on: Rep. Liz Cheney, a 54-year-old, two-term congresswoman from Wyoming versus ex-president Donald Trump, a 74-year-old one-term billionaire president from Florida by way of Queens.
At stake is the control of the national Republican Party at a time when prospects appear bright for the party to re-take control of both houses of Congress in 2022.
That goal is only attainable, according to Cheney, if the party leadership breaks cleanly from Trump, escapes from under his influence and leaves behind his four years of chaos, erratic behavior and bitter partisan conflict marked by two impeachment trials.
