    Biggest mistake? That’s a tough field.

    I’d argue it was not charging trump with Jan6, or any of his other crimes.

    or hiring and not firing Merrick Garland.

    or running a second term when he should have held a primary for a new candidate.

    Harris was a giant nobody during Biden’s presidency. Nobody gave af about her until Biden dropped and we were just stuck with her.

      Didn’t he promise to only do one term too? I feel like I remember that, but could be misinformation at this point.

      It was worse than just making Harris a nobody. He dumped on her all the no win issues he didn’t want to have sully his name. He never gave her any wins and saddled her with shit. It almost looked like intentional sabotage. Certainly not the centrist master plan I expected with her being chosen.

        That was the people around him doing that. He wasn’t capable of hatching those sorts of political schemes any more.
