Dr. Charles Franklin, director of the Marquette Law Poll, commented on the polarization of today’s politics and if President Joe Biden can create unity. “We are so polarized that polarization is not going to go away no matter what he does in the short term,” Franklin said. “The question is whether over a little bit longer term, let’s say over the course of the year, whether Biden can win over a segment of the population to create a majority that is both willing to give him a chance and is not unhappy with his performance. That’s up in the air, but I don’t think it’s inconceivable.”
