This is exactly the kind of Jimmy Carter-style weakness that turns people off to him in general, and makes foreign dictators lose all respect for him.
I wasn't old enough to be paying attention during the Carter years, but after reading about his administration in detail, I would have to agree.
Mind you, Carter was A LOT younger than Joe Slidin' was while President, but weakness is weakness, and neither man will ever be considered a great leader.
Elections have consequences. I guess we shouldn't be surprised that Brandon would blunder such a complicated situation.
The people that voted for him were captured pawns of their ideology and/or have been brainwashed after 5 straight years of demonizing Trump into thinking he was a bad guy.

The people that voted for him believed he was going to be moderate, it had nothing to do with ideology (he wouldn't have won with just D's voting, he got a lot of I's and probably some moderate Rs.
He wasn’t this way as vice president or as senator, he was much more moderate. That’s the Biden we thought we were voting for. I for one vastly underestimated how afraid of the far left he was.
He wouldn’t have won with just Ds in any case. He got a lot of Independents and probably moderate Rs as well.
You've been on this site for a long time. How did you not notice the Democrat party was moving in this direction? It's been obvious to me since the Obama years. I assumed Biden would be a puppet the minute John Lewis orchestrated the super-delegates to vote for him after the South Carolina Primary and every one of the other primary candidates dropped out except Bernie Sanders. I also knew exactly who would be the puppeteer, Obama and his people. We've all seen the interview where Obama said he'd love to be president if he could be behind the scenes because he hated taking all the hits. He was perfectly willing to hide what he actually wanted. Just look at all his present votes in the Illinois Senate and the book his chief of staff wrote about how they lied about gay marriage because they knew black people in South Caroline wouldn't go for supporting gay marriage in the 2008 election.
I agree. There was no blunder. He’s just afraid of them (far left) sitting out the election as they have threatened. Most Dems voted for him in primaries because he was supposed to be the moderate as opposed to the rest of the field. If most Dems wanted far left they’d have picked Warren or Sanders.
Absolutely
