Winter challenges are coming for Biden White House
President Biden is facing a challenging winter.
Supply chain bottlenecks spurred by increased demand threaten to hold up Christmas gifts. Businesses are facing labor shortages, which are likely to lead to inconveniences for Americans traveling during the holiday season. Rising gas prices will add to those headaches, and now administration officials are warning that heating homes also will cost more this year. And as it gets colder, inside gatherings could lead to more coronavirus cases, which have started to flatline after weeks in which they have fallen. It all adds up to a difficult winter and potentially troublesome holiday season for President Biden, who already has seen his approval numbers drop amid a challenging few months for his administration. |
