Evaluating a Bargaining Strategy

In a one-time interaction, one person (the Proposer) is given $100 and must offer a portion of it to a second person (the Responder). The Proposer decides to offer $35 to the Responder and keep the remaining $65. The Responder can either accept this offer, in which case they get $35 and the Proposer gets $65, or reject it, in which case both individuals receive $0. The decision is final.

Critique the Proposer's decision to offer $35. Is this a good strategy? Justify your answer by considering the potential outcomes and the likely perspectives of both the Proposer and the Responder.
