Exactly nine months ago today, we took a look at a striking political split-screen. On one side, the public saw congressional Republicans struggling to choose a House speaker, while on the other, President Joe Biden was in Kentucky for a celebratory event touting a major infrastructure project. The resulting image was one the White House was eager to project: A Democratic president was succeeding, while GOP lawmakers were flailing. One party offered chaos, while the other offered results.
As that story was breaking, Trump was throwing another tantrum at a New York courthouse, where the Trump Organization is on trial for alleged fraud, while on Capitol Hill, congressional Republicans were preparing to oust their House speaker for failing to fully satisfy some of his most radical members. A day later, NBC News ran another report on another Biden priority.
