19. The problem is that Biden thinks "rational republicans" actually exist.

They don't. Anywhere!

This is the same shit from the Obama years, the lesson he and Biden never learned.

Barack Obama spent eight years patiently begging the GOP to help him save the nation which they had left a smoking hole. For eight years he asked for compromise and civility. And for eight years they smiled - and then gave him the back of their hand, told him to pound sand, and then turned and elected a vile man defined by his cruelty, consumed with grievance and revenge, and a majority in both houses of Congress.

Did they ever compromise with Democrats? "Reach across the aisle"? Really? You have to ask?
