Mr. Biden was presented with the opportunity to be and act Presidential, meaning that he had the chance to demonstrate that he has the capability to lead all of the United States of America...
In Mr. Biden’s public statements regarding the rioting in Washington DC on January 6, (WSJ) he might have used the occasion to reach out to all of those Americans who both voted against him, (47% of the general population according to AP), as well as the 80 % of Republicans and 45% of independents who believe that the 2020 election was compromised (WSJ) and who are also rightly and justly appalled by the lawless behavior of the mob in D.C. He might have said something like this:
“To all my fellow Americans, Conservatives and Liberals alike, let us all speak with one voice that political violence and rioting is abhorrent, and we as a people must not tolerate it, whether it is executed by those on the Left or those on the Right.”
“To my fellow citizens who did not vote for me, let me say that I recognize many of you have doubts about the faithfulness of our electoral process, and now suspect that your votes don’t count. Without endorsing such a view, I acknowledge that your concerns may be expressed in good faith. I will work with the incoming Congress to address these concerns, and restore your faith in our electoral processes.”
“To those of my own political party, and others supportive of my electoral success, I ask you now to set aside your heated passions, and the desires you have for score-settling, no matter how justified you may believe them to be. Our success as a nation has been the result of our willingness to find common ground and compromise.”

“the rioting in Washington DC on January 6”
There was rioting in DC outside of the Capitol site?
Nobody here gives a shiite what this demented ventriloquist’s dummy has to say.
Biden will do what Xi tells him.
To quote Radiohead’s “Kid A”
We’ve got heads on sticks
And you’ve got ventriloquists.
Anyone expecting Biden to act presidential don’t know very much about Biden. He is and always has been a detestable puke. He will bring real embarrassment to America, but the press will never call him on it.
It’s amazing how many times the Dems have said we can now have “unity” as a country, then in the next breath say they must crush PDJT and all of his supporters (i.e. about half the country). They want unity only through the destruction of any opposition.
How there aren’t more of their own supporters seeing this and troubled by this, is mind-blowing. If we hypothetically had a conservative president out there promising to do to Leftists even half of what the Dems are right now to our side, I would be speaking out very loudly. Yet you hear almost nothing from their side.
Portland, Milwaukee and NYC didn't get that particular memo.
Will be many many more to come.
I don’t think he’ll do anything.
Obama did nothing. And he’s his hero.
Xi already won. The ccp doesn’t need any us politician anymore. They control what goes in and out of your wallet.
23 million Russians, 65 million Chinese and 1.3 million Cambodians were unavailable for comment.
Joe Biden only says what he is told to say.
It’s still for all the marbles.
They will not be magnanimous.
They will not seek unity.
They will not be fair or honorable.
They will crush their opponents (us).
They must never allow us to rise again.
Hey, let’s have some fun with Biden.
I’d like to propose a “How long will Biden last” pole. One dollar per entry, enter as many times as you like.
If you win you get the glory but FR gets every penny of the proceeds.
Days start at midnight except for inaugeration day which starts as soon as Biden lies on the Bible. Granularity down to the minute. The finer you cut it the closer you are.
The reality is that the USA is in second revolution mode.

He can blame Kammy any time they blow something.
Xiden has been busy bouncing the baloney for the snowflake college kiddies.
“... let us all speak with one voice that political violence and rioting is abhorrent, and we as a people must not tolerate it, whether it is executed by those on the Left or those on the Right.”
If we assemble to object to a stolen election, we are “ a riotous mob, insurrectionists, domestic terrorists.”. If they burn down Minneapolis and DC for that matter, they are protestors. The amount of damage done to the Capitol amounts to thousands of dollars. The damage done to Minneapolis is estimated at around a half billion.
