I got the feeling that the Republicans had bought off the elites long since, since the gilded age in fact. The tax cut for the elites was just confirmation. During the unraveling it was common wisdom that it was better to chase money than chase votes. This is less obviously true now that the Democrats are trying to win votes by solving problems and projecting the Republicans as opposing solving problems. If the crisis problems are COVID, the economy, racism, red violence and global warming, the Democrats are the ones attacking problems and the GOP has placed itself on the wrong side of all five issues. Good move in a crisis, when the problems are solved, to be in favor of solving problems. The opposite worked well enough in the unraveling.

I don't get the impression that Biden will let anything be watered down, and I don't see him changing that for a few bribes. Even the Republicans are having a bit of trouble with big corporate donors not wanting to associate themselves with a poisoned brand.

One trend I have heard a few vibes of is big businesses wanting to win a market share of new green businesses. If the government makes sure charging stations are coming, the electric cars will be built.
