I would have much more respect for Joe Biden if he would just tell the truth: He really does not want to take anything more than half-measures in sanctioning Russia because he is afraid of (1) losing American support, if that should result in some inconvenience (including higher gasoline prices); and (2) it might risk provoking Russia into a war with the US (much as happened with Japan, just prior to WWII).

Instead, he insists that the sanctions now being imposed are "severe" (including, for instance, the denial of airspace in America to Russian airplanes).

Just be candid with the American people, please, Mr. President.

Dream on.

During his entire 55-year career Biden has never been anything more than a corruptible politician. Working for the Biden Kabal. Your expectations are below his pay grade

Biden isn't corruptible, he is corrupt. He channels the payoffs through Hunter. Much as Harry Reid did through his sons. This is acceptable behavior among Democrats. I expect sometime in 2023 he will have to step down so President Harris can issue a blanket pardon for him. Merrick Garland will follow up with a grant of immunity for Joe and the other members of the crime family just as was done for the lesser members of the Hillary Clinton illegal server conspiracy. Democrats are immune from prosecution, even mores the illegal aliens and BLM members.

The only thing Biden deserves is a small cell with limited view of the sun.

I'll not split hairs with you. Being corrupted and being corruptible essentially achieve the same results.

Bottom line is we have a "sniffing old pedophile" and a past her prime "hoe" teamed up in the oval office. The country may never recover from the Sniff and Blow tour.

You want bluster and more sticking out the chest?

Why would it amount to "bluster" if Joe Biden were just to admit what he is truly afraid of?

why is it important to you to make believe democrats are frightened children? that says more about you than it does them.

Would you not like that, too?
