A key problem for the Biden team and for the Democratic Party is Kamala Harris. If Biden decides to not seek a second term, it is almost certain that Vice President Harris will be the shaky nominee.

This “debate” was incredibly sad. Sad to watch Joe Biden, like a fighter well beyond his prime, taking blow after blow. Always on his heels. Always reactive.

Crassus has been called a fool in history for literally losing his head by invading Iran, which was then known as Parthia. We need to wait and see how historians will view Trump’s invasion.
