Well?
Since the House doesn’t have a filibuster and House Democrats have a majority (Not much)…..
The President really doesn’t need to deal with McCarthy who unlike Senate Majority Leader is a solid Trump guy….
“A number of times I’ve requested the meetings, he’s never even acknowledged them,” McCarthy said.
The GOP leader, a Trump loyalist who backed the 45th president’s push to overturn Biden’s election victory, first requested a meeting with Biden in a March 5 letter that was focused on the surge of unaccompanied immigrant children showing up at the southern border.
“In the face of all of this, I feel compelled to express great concern with the manner in which your administration is approaching this crisis,” he wrote, “but with hope that we can work together to solve it.”
White House press secretary Jen Psaki has previously said the Biden administration is in frequent contact with Democrats and Republicans alike and is open to engaging with McCarthy on how to roll back the “inhumane immigration approach” from the previous administration. But so far, she has not committed to a Biden meeting with McCarthy….

Biden ought to meet with him.
Indeed,in my view,the President ,whomever may be holding that office ,should regularly meet with the Congressional leadership.
What’s the harm?

None Jack….
I agree….
But he doesn’t have to right now and i’m sure with McCarthy kissing Trump’s ass whenever he can Biden& Co. Don’t want to waste their time…
In fact Republican Senators HAVE cast votes to confirm Biden’s cabinet members…
House Republicans have cut themselves out of government right now
