Frankly, I am glad we have Pres. Biden in the White House during this Poland mess.

The last thing we want is someone with an itchy trigger finger. He's handling this in a calm and collected manner - letting it play out and receiving all the facts. Could you imagine TFG out there and the bluster he'd be tweeting if he was still president during this?

We'd be talking about Russian forces in Berlin or further west by now and how the US non-involvement has allowed Putin to not only reconstitute the cold war Iron Curtain, but push further west.
