Biden works to secure legacy with Trump lurking in the wings

President Joe Biden’s goal is to secure his legacy as he spends his last weeks in the White House. While the people in his administration work to prioritize the agenda and emphasize the things that might secure that legacy, they are mindful that Biden’s successor (who was also his predecessor) is lurking in the wings and come Jan. 20 will likely tear it all down. There is little doubt that now that the election is over, the Biden administration doesn’t feel burdened by the constraints of a campaign, nor do they seem concerned by President-elect Donald Trump’s pending return to power. They do, however, realize that everything they do may have little or no consequence after the inauguration.
