I don’t like his position on Israel, but I believe any other position would be political suicide, and with fascist traitors waiting in the wings for a second try, he can’t afford to rock that boat. He’s doing pretty well, considering how divided the country is, and the hand he was dealt.
Something has to give; our democracy is fraying. If not Orange Stalin, we are in serious danger that the next Republican will be someone more clever, but just as amoral. God forbid we see another Nixon.
You’re not wrong, but I think that says more about his ability as a leader than it does about the populace. If he were stronger, had better convictions, made better arguments, he probably would not be backed into so many corners.
But I also don’t think he has strong opinions. I think he’s an octogenarian politician who just wants to ride out the wave of circumstance into the history books. He was the right guy in the right place at the right time, offending the fewest and opposing the worst of humanity.
You know, I think you’re right. If it were Obama, he could afford to be stronger. Heck, if it were Bill, I wouldn’t worry as much about Cheeto Hitler. Clinton was even more centrist, and also not my favorite, but he was a charismatic fucker. And Obama was just bulletproof.
You’re right; Biden’s a good statesman, but he just hasn’t been able to motivate people. He won only because of the two-party system, and b/c the majority were done with Drumpf, not through any great leadership.
