Harris: Reluctance to pressure Biden out of 2024 was 'recklessness'

17. I want to challenge this

"In terms of policy and governance," -- what difference does policy and governance matter when they are wiped away by Trump? When their lasting impact is only providing firewood for the unitary executive Trump to burn the country down.

The lasting impact of the Biden administration, tragically, is not his legislative achievements (they are being dismantled and perverted). The lasting impact was Trump getting elected with a grudge.

Biden in 2020 was a hero of the Republic who defeated neo-fascism at home. His decision that he was the 'Great Leader' surrendered his legacy and consigned him to President Trump interregnum.

He had the choice to keep a promise. No one needs to be President for 2 terms. It is arrogant to believe the country needs "me just me". That there is no one better. That there is no one with expertise and skills and an experience equal to the incumbent.

AND it did not need to be this way. The debate happened. They could have been honest, as they framed themselves. I saw with my own eyes what Republicans were saying. It might not have been the whole story, but it was political cyanide.
