Liberals upset Biden hasn't tried to blame Ukraine on Jan 6th, voter rights, and the GOP?

MSNBC, CNN, others strain to liken Ukrainian plight to domestic political issues

American pundits and liberal journalists have bent over backward to compare Ukrainians getting bombed and killed during Russia’s ongoing attack to the plight of Americans under Republican rule.

Ukraine has been devastated since Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the invasion that has resulted in civilian deaths, destruction of cities and over 1.7 million refugees as women and children attempt to flee the war-torn nation. While Ukrainians are fighting for their lives, some pundits have been equating literal war to things such as voting rights and the Jan 6 Capitol riot.

The Atlantic's David Frum appeared on CNN last week and urged President Biden to blame the invasion of Ukraine on Republican ideology. "These events have given the absolute lie to the false and idiotic idea of America First, America alone, our allies are worthless, having friends is not important," Frum said.

Joy Reid said Biden had an opportunity to "take a really solid hit at Republicans for having supported Vladimir Putin," but whiffed on the chance. "He did not mention the January 6 insurrection," Reid added. "If you want to talk about a profound hit to our democracy, there’s nothing more profound than a violent physical attack on the very building he's standing in. That did not make it into the speech, I found that interesting."

The two major problems with this argument are that it is completely out of touch with what the American electorate believes and it becomes more of the same sort of "finger pointing" that Americans are getting very fed up with. 

For starters, only 30% of the American public according to recent polling believe that Putin would have invaded Russia if Trump was still President. You cannot play to a third of the country, insult the intelligence of  the rest, and hope to gather momentum. There is no "good" argument to make that blames this on the GOP.  We have a Democrat in the White House, our Senate and House are both controlled by Democrats. This is on their watch folks. 

To add insult to injury here, there is a growing number of Americans wanting solutions rather than rhetoric. Rather than try to solve the problems of the world, it seems liberal are spending their energy trying to point finger, change the narrative, and tweak their "messaging". Any attempt to suggest that Putin invaded Ukraine because of a Riot at the Capital 14 months ago, or that the invasion is due to new election voting laws have been enacted in various US states is preposterous. But yet, that is the argument that liberals are upset Biden did not make at the SOTU. 

Ultimately this is all on Biden's shoulders. He is the one the demanded he could stand toe to toe with Putin and that he was the one man whom Putin feared. Obviously Putin is not scared of Biden and  I am pretty sure Putin would not cower in fear if our President went out in front of the world and tried to blame the Russian invasion of Ukraine on and American riot ot the new Georgia or Texas election laws.
