That would make sense...
If Biden hasn't spent the entire primary expecting a Republican Senate and telling everyone he was the only one to get Republicans onboard and that's why he should be president...
It's four years later. He wouldn't even try to get democrats onboard, he publicly said their choice is their choice and it would be wrong to try and change their mind.
So why is he running again?
Because he's the incumbent? It doesn't matter that as soon as he was elected, he said the reason he was elected just isn't possible?
Like, maybe if he had tried I could see letting him keep trying. But he immediately gave up. Do people get nearly think he'll start trying if he gets the second term? What's the excuse for not trying now?
Let's not forget how hard Biden worked to rehabilitate the anti-Trump Republicans. He has more Republican speakers at the DNC than progressives. All the worst shit Trump did had been Republican agenda items for decades. He should have hung Trump around their necks. Instead, he nearly handed them congresss.
