Fact is if they keep slamming Biden and weakening his Presidency.....possibly no infrastructure gets done, Covid continues to ravage with every drop of lost credibility, voting rights do not get protected, climate change protections don't get done. That is what will happen when Repugs and vulnerable Dems feel Biden is wounded.

They are doing it for ratings. But all the executives have kids and grand kids and nieces and nephews. Yeah, we got some ratings but destroyed your future!!

Afghanistan does not affect your kid's and other kid's futures CNN....Biden failing would! WTH is wrong with these people?
