Even Republicans Laud President Biden's Russia Speech

President Biden made a strong pitch to Russia -- why it's a bad idea to invade Ukraine.

On Tuesday, President Biden gave a strong speech addressing Russia's ongoing attempts to invade Ukraine.

POTUS calmly explained the situation to the American people, rallied NATO nations, explained the dire consequences Putin will face, and made it clear that diplomacy is the best policy for all parties involved.

Jennifer Rubin in the Washington Post wrote: Biden has Putin trapped in a corner.

It was a show of strength in the face of Russian aggression against our ally. The former guy would have swapped love letters instead of taking a tough stand against the Russian dictator president.

The praise didn't stop there, as Fox contributor Mark Theissen told Fox host Martha McCallum that President Biden's speech was "excellent."

They'll support a position 90% of the time, then throw in an occasional qualifier so they have plausible deniability.
