There is a difference in being a strong leader and being a "Strongman". Strong leaders operate from a place of confidence and build consensus for their ideas. They allow differences of opinions and receive input from varying sources but will ultimately make the decision to benefit the most people. Biden is a strong leader not a "strongman". Strongman leaders operate from fear. They seek to impose their will on others despite any evidence that is leveled to guide their decisions. Strongmen are bullies, but usually cowards in character.
