FOX News polling (which has been friendly to Biden) shows that only 29% think he is on point here
With about two thirds of Americans concerned about Russia and Ukraine, one has to wonder where this polling will go now that Putin has invaded Ukraine? I doubt that the number will be any better and his presser today isn't going to help.
You cannot go around bragging about how you were the guy to stand up to Putin and take him down and then sit around shitting your pants while Putin invades Ukraine. You sort of look like an idiot at this point in time.

Now that Trump is out of office, the Republicans are confused and off-balance when it comes to Vladimir Putin. They want to say he is a bad man taking advantage of a feeble Joe Biden but it's uncomfortable because they like him so much and hate liberals.
Since the end of the cold war era, fewer people want the US to be the police in international affairs.
And they like strong looking leaders, like Putin and Trump.
But people like you have underestimated Biden from his basement...
It's far too early to expect in Ukraine results.
But people like you have underestimated Biden from his basement...
Really? How so? What has Biden done successfully as President that surprised anyone? Pretty much everything from foreign policy, to the economy, to crime, to inflation, to people still dying from Covid, and now full on war in Eastern Europe. Where is this "unexpected" success?
Wouldn't it be much more realistic to say that liberals like you have overestimated him as President?
Roger predicted "$3.00 gas"
Nope
"New York(CNN Business)Gas prices were rising rapidly even before Russia's invasion of Ukraine, but with the current shock to the oil market, $4 a gallon gas is now likely to be widespread across the country in a matter of weeks — if not sooner."
Biden will continue to buy Putin Oil.

TRUMP INCREASINGLY ISOLATED IN PRAISE FOR PUTIN
February 24, 2022 at 8:17 pm EST By Taegan Goddard 98 Comments
“Leading Republicans on Thursday assailed Russia for plunging Europe into its first major land war in decades — isolating former president Donald Trump, the de facto standard-bearer of their party, in his praise for the country’s authoritarian leader,”
the Washington Post reports.
“From Capitol Hill to the campaign trail, prominent GOP voices, including some close Trump loyalists, vowed that Russian President Vladimir Putin would pay a severe price for ordering a military offensive against Ukraine, even as the party sought to blame President Biden for the crisis.
"Meanwhile, Republican leaders strained to articulate an alternative policy to counter Russia’s revanchist campaign — at once insisting on more severe measures and opposing the deployment of U.S. forces, which Biden has said is not an option.”

JOHN KELLY EXPRESSED ‘DISBELIEF’ TRUMP PRAISED PUTIN
February 24, 2022 at 8:22 pm EST By Taegan Goddard 152 Comments
Former White House chief of staff John Kelly told CNN he is shocked that his old boss, Donald Trump, praised Russian president Vladimir Putin.
Said Kelly:
“Disbelief.
Putin is a tyrant.
He’s a murderer.
He has attacked an innocent country whose only crime is that they want to be free and democratic,
and they’re working in that direction and have been working in that direction.”
KEEP UP YOUR DEFENSE OF TRUMP AND PUTIN. AMERICA IS WATCHING.
KEEP IT UP.
Media Blames Trump After Joe Biden’s Russia Policy Fails to Deter Vladimir Putin
“…the Russian thug now attacking Ukraine helped Donald Trump become president because he thought that would some day make this kind of attack easier to pull off. He was right in the short term, longer term, TBD,” wrote CNN White House correspondent John Harwood.
Considering recent events, I think it’s safe to say that President Biden’s tough talk towards Russian President Vladimir Putin regarding threats he made to invade Ukraine was not the brilliant strategy the White House thought it was. This despite the fact that Biden assured us prior to the 2020 presidential election that Putin “doesn’t want me to be president… because I’m the only person in this field who’s ever gone toe-to-toe with him.”
As it turns out, it appears Putin very much wanted Biden to be president. Perhaps he deliberately planned for the military incursion to officially start nearly two years to the day Biden first made the statement:
As it became more and more clear in recent days that Biden throwing out warnings to Putin would do little to nothing to deter him from going forward with an attack that was months in the making, the Usual Suspects in the media and on the left began to trot out the “but Trump!” card in an effort to blame the former president for Joe Biden’s woes in trying and failing to manage the Russia beast.
Here are a few examples:
When one considers the inconvenient facts regarding the differing policies of the last three presidents towards Russia, Harwood’s response in particular understandably rubbed people all kinds of the wrong way:
Once one remembers how the Wikileaks documents proved that Harwood – who we’re supposed to believe is a “neutral” political correspondent for CNN – was little more than a mouthpiece for Hillary Clinton’s failed 2016 presidential campaign, the reason for his position becomes quite obvious:
The good news here is that at least the “adults are back in charge,” right?
It is from that June 2021 piece that CNN editor-at-large Chris Cillizza shared this thought-provoking “analysis:”
Even in Biden’s tone, he appeared to be making a concerted effort to be dispassionate — rarely showing off the animation that he regularly displays when jousting with the American press corps stateside. He was also far briefer in his remarks (and the questions he took after them) than Putin who held court for the better part of an hour in the immediate wake of the world leaders’ meeting.
While Biden never mentioned his presidential predecessor, the 2018 summit in Helsinki, Finland, between Trump and Putin hung over the proceedings like a stale fart — with both sides utterly aware of it but neither willing to acknowledge it directly.
KEEP UP YOUR DEFENSE OF TRUMP AND PUTIN. AMERICA IS WATCHING.
KEEP IT UP.
Yes... America is watching.
Watching Putin humiliate the west and specifically Biden.
Do you honestly think anyone is upset over someone pointing out how much smarter Putin is than Biden and how Putin has outsmarted Biden at every turn?
Perhaps you should be a little upset that your hero was shootin blanks, was all bark and no bite, and hasn't the first fucking clue what he is doing.
This is real life and death Reverend. People are dying and we are doing nothing to stop it. Maybe we shouldn't be worried about it. Maybe it's not our place to step in.
But Biden promised us that he would stand toe to toe with Putin and get the better of him. Like his bravado about how he could stop covid in its tracks... that was silly rhetoric that nobody with an IQ over room temperature should have ever believed.
I promise you.... nobody but that 20-30 percent who would support Biden no matter what he does is going to be putting blame on Trump or the GOP. This is on our President.
Trump and Carlson Are All Over Russian State Media

“In the final days before Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the invasion of Ukraine, Russian state media used footage of Donald Trump, former secretary of state Mike Pompeo and Fox News personality Tucker Carlson to bolster Putin’s image,” Grid reports.
“A Grid review of a half-dozen Russian state media outlets found at least a dozen examples of government channels resharing complimentary remarks by the three men.”

EU condemns Russian invasion of Ukraine, announces additional sanctions
EU condemns Russian invasion of Ukraine, announces additional sanctions
BY CHLOE FOLMAR
The Council of the European Union on Thursday condemned Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and announced that it had agreed to an additional package of sanctions against Russia.
“The European Council condemns in the strongest possible terms the Russian Federation’s unprovoked and unjustified military aggression against Ukraine,” read a set of conclusions adopted by the council during a special meeting on Thursday. “Russia bears full responsibility for this act of aggression and all the destruction and loss of life it will cause. It will be held accountable for its actions.”
The council asserted that Russia's invasion violated international law and the principles of the United Nations charter and that the country was "undermining European and global security and stability."

No Roger...
You should be ashamed... for voting for Biden.
Since when is it American to lie and pretend up is down and black is white just because we do not want the doddering old fool in the White House to look bad.
Liberals trying to make this foreign policy disaster about Fox news and Trump is exactly why they are heading for a HUGE beating in November.

WASHINGTON—President Biden has reached a final decision on his coming nomination to the Supreme Court, according to a person familiar with the decision.
An announcement is expected within days and could come as soon as Friday, the person said. The timing of an announcement hasn’t been finalized.
Mr. Biden has promised to nominate the first Black woman to the Supreme Court and has interviewed three contenders in recent days. She would succeed retiring Justice Stephen Breyer.
The three potential nominees who have been interviewed are: Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, Judge Julianna Michelle Childs and California Supreme Court Justice Leondra Kruger, according to people familiar with the process.
You are the doddering fool who actually believes that the deep staters are hiding the doddering old fool.
For the last five years ago all you have are conspiracy theories. Not one agenda.
The RNC did not have any agenda except to call him Sleepy Joe.
No foriegn policy, even taxes.
New York Times:

Just another crazier thing....
America has no real enemies globally. They ooze moral relativism. Obama was not just wrong about Russia. His entire worldview was naive and underestimated the threats to our national security.
We see the echoes of that disastrous approach now as Biden’s team meets with the leaders of the European Union, China, and Russia to revive the Iran Nuclear Deal. Any “diplomatic freeze” does not extend to ensuring we enrich the mullahs while they continue to enrich uranium. President Biden also sees China, an existential threat in an open Cold War with the U.S., as a competitor rather than an ideological enemy.
For those in the cheap seats, Putin invaded Crimea in 2014. More than 13,000 people have already died in that conflict. “While the armed conflict in eastern Ukraine transitioned to a stalemate after it first erupted in early 2014, shelling and skirmishes still regularly occur, including an escalation of violence in the spring of 2021,” writes Global Conflict Tracker. It is no surprise Putin increased his troop movements in and around Ukraine in the fall of 2021 after Biden’s surrender in Afghanistan.
Ch is cheering in pleasure.

Trump largely isolated in praise for Putin as GOP condemns Russian invasion
By Isaac Stanley-Becker, Josh Dawsey, Marianna Sotomayor and Mike DeBonis
February 24 at 4:32 PM PST
Leading Republicans on Thursday assailed Russia for plunging Europe into its first major land war in decades — isolating former president Donald Trump, the de facto standard-bearer of their party, in his praise for the country’s authoritarian leader.
From Capitol Hill to the campaign trail, prominent GOP voices, including some close Trump loyalists, vowed that Russian President Vladimir Putin would pay a severe price for ordering a military offensive against Ukraine, even as the party sought to blame President Biden for the crisis. Meanwhile, Republican leaders strained to articulate an alternative policy to counter Russia’s revanchist campaign — at once insisting on more severe measures and opposing the deployment of U.S. forces, which Biden has said is not an option.
The crosscurrents point to the hurdles Republicans face in staking out a position against foreign adversaries that include not just Russia but also China as they contend with the former president’s admiration for strongmen and an ascendant wing within their party that disfavors foreign intervention.
The competing impulses were captured in the reaction of Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), a rising GOP star who replaced the hawkish Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) as chair of the party’s House Conference.
Stefanik’s statement, mostly trained on Biden’s leadership capacities, also criticized Putin as a “gutless, bloodthirsty, authoritarian dictator.” The solution she proposed, with few details, was “strength.”
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), who has suggested blocking Ukraine from joining the NATO alliance, which would mean acceding to a key Putin demand, nonetheless backed sweeping action in a Thursday statement.
“President Biden must act now to hit Vladimir Putin where it hurts, beginning with Russia’s energy sector,” he said. “The Biden administration should sanction Russian energy production to a halt, and help arm the Ukrainians to defend themselves.”
Most Republicans not cultist Scott
Trump, in a radio interview on Tuesday, called Putin’s actions “genius,” though he appeared to strike a sarcastic tone at times. On Wednesday, he told donors gathered at his Mar-a-Lago Club that Putin’s moves were “pretty smart,” according to a video of his remarks. And in an appearance on Fox News later that evening, he made the claim that the invasion was a result of what he falsely described as the “rigged election” in 2020.
Trump has often told aides that Putin is “a brilliant strategist, and really tough, and really smart and savvy,” said a person who has spoken to him about it on numerous occasions, and that “Biden is not up for it.” He told donors gathered for dinner at Mar-a-Lago last year how “tough” Putin was, according to another person, who heard the comments. The person, who like others in this report spoke on the condition of anonymity to share private discussions, said the former president is “very respectful of Putin, in a perverse sort of way.”
A second adviser said Trump’s observations on Wednesday were meant not to buttress Putin, but to contrast him with Biden and portray Biden as not up for the job, adding that some allies were trying to get him to tweak his comments. A Trump spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for an interview.
Former vice president Mike Pence, while critical of Biden, also sharply attacked Putin in a Fox News appearance Wednesday evening. “No one in the GOP should be praising Vladimir Putin. He’s a former KGB officer and a dictator and a thug. We should be clear about that,” said Marc Short, the former vice president’s longtime chief of staff, in an interview.
Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.) said he had breakfast Thursday with Trump at Mar-a-Lago in between a conversation with a top State Department official and calls with Democratic senators to discuss a supplemental appropriations bill that would aid the Ukrainian people. Graham said he wasn’t a fan of Trump’s “genius” comment about Putin, “but I understood what the president was trying to say.”
“Number one, the Republican Party is going to rally around the idea that Putin is a thug and a crook,” Graham said in an interview. “I have no doubt that the overwhelming majority of Republican senators see what’s happening to Ukraine is detrimental to our national security and well-being.”
Competitive primaries throughout the country showcased the GOP’s divisions on foreign policy as well as a clear preference within segments of the party not to engage on Putin’s attack, which is quickly becoming the most significant threat to European security since World War II.
In the crowded Senate contest in Ohio, J.D. Vance, a self-styled populist who rose to prominence with the publication of his 2016 “Hillbilly Elegy,” said this week, “I don’t really care what happens to Ukraine one way or the other.” In a second Thursday statement, he said, “Russia’s assault on Ukraine is unquestionably a tragedy.” But he also claimed that demands for a response are thinly veiled calls for military intervention, which he rejected.

Fuck Biden
A good president would have the nation United behind him.
A great president would have the world united behind him.
Biden doesn't even have all of his democrat party united behind him.
This week, bumbling president is downright dangerous.

Huh.
Just a few short years ago Hillary announced that "Dissent is patriotic."
But now according to the alky that was bullshit, and according to the pederast Trump and Carlson should be shot.

That's correct, alky.
And here's how we know this to be true -
Mr. Biden has promised to nominate the first Black woman to the Supreme Court
If a person is awarded a job based upon physical attributes instead of raw talent and qualifications, and that award is in pursuit of achieving some sort of racial and/or gender-biased, or some other subjective physical attribute as it's goal, then it is by definition affirmative action.
Any black female jurist with a modicum of self-respect would tell the racist piece of shit to go fuck himself. But leftists are, at their core, shallow, craven human beings. As will be whoever accepts the nomination.
There's a character on South Park known as Token Black.
Look him up.
His sister will be our next USSC Justice.
You might not like the descriptor but doesn't make it not true alky.
