Biden. At least he played a hand in putting his administration together.
Trump's last one was all McConnell's people, and none of them stuck by him in the Big Lie.
So his next administration won't have any of that stability. It'll be wall-to-wall election deniers hellbent on keeping him in power.
No thanks. -
