Here are the key takeaways from Biden's town hall:

President Joe Biden was fielded key questions on the economy, infrastructure and more in the CNN town hall.WASHINGTON – In a town hall roughly six months into his administration, President Joe Biden faced questions from the coronavirus pandemic still plaguing the United States and vaccine hesitancy to concerns of gun violence and limits on voting rights.

Biden said"the expectation," although scientists aren't"promising me any specific date," is for children to possibly be able to get vaccinated by the beginning of the school year in the fall.

CNN moderator Don Lemon asked Biden that if Democrats and Republicans "can't come together right to investigate the biggest attack on our Capitol in 200 years," what makes him think that they could come together on anything."I don't care if you think I'm Satan reincarnated," Biden said. "The fact is, you can't look at that television and say nothing happened on the 6th.""I have faith in the American people," Biden said.

However, when pressed by Lemon on "why protecting the filibuster is that more important than protecting voting rights, especially for people who fought and died for that." Lemon added that former President Barack Obama, who Biden served under, noted that the filibuster is a"relic of Jim Crow." Biden said he agreed, but said that if they got rid of it nothing would get done.

He added: "There will be near-term inflation because everything is now trying to be picked back up," he added.

Three takeaways: 1 Cops are great and underfunded. 2 Go back to Haiti, Mexico and Cuba. Esp. Haiti. 3 The vaccines kill Covid 19 dead.

Softball CNN. Call it a Biden rally. Pre scripted. At least Biden spoke. Least accessible President seen in my lifetime. He gets away with it , because he is the anti-Trump, and MSM protect him

This is Biden's 2nd town hall. His 1st town hall was on CNN with Anderson Cooper on Feb 17 - 28 days after his inauguration

Biden said you wont get Covid if you get vaccinated. Will he be banned for spreading misinformation?

1)joe is dead 2)only talk to black gays 3) you must get vaccinated even though we’re sure they don’t work 4) we must use term bipartisan for every polarized bill we pass.
