    Blame the supreme Court

    Hasn’t Biden been on the judiciary committee since the 80s? Didn’t he vote a bunch of the current bench out of committee rather than blocking them, like McConnell has done?

      Famously he pushed through Clarence Thomas despite the extremely credible sexual harassments claims from Anita Hill.

      He tried to “apologize” to her in 2020 IIRC as a publicity stunt but she didn’t find it satisfactory.

          They killed it dead as soon as they decided it was going to be Biden. Remember when Brandon was at the bottom of the polls at the begining of primary season and they had to drop the “sexy grandpa” and switch to “cool cars and aviators”?
