When asked about the Americans kidnapped by Hamas, Joe Biden responded,
I have no higher priority than the safety of Americans being held hostage around the world.
What about ice cream? Nap time? His Corvette? His blood feud with Donald Trump?
The way he treated US citizens in Afghanistan and Afghan translators and commandos makes me doubt.

Not to mention the way he and his party treat Americans here at home, especially unborn children.

But everyone says he said he all right words. So it has some sort of meaning or something in the real world.

Saying the right words is a good start, but I haven't seen the hammer come down yet, or even preparations for the hammer to come down.

The one thing about Joe Biden is he has never bucked his own party. He's always in lockstep with the main thinking of the Democrat Party. If they want him, "a devout Catholic", to endorse abortion up to birth, he'll do it. If they want him to buy into transgenderism, he's ok with that. When the world starts putting pressure on Israel for a ceasefire or peace talks with Hamas, Joe Biden will fold like a cheap deck of cards. His words mean nothing when it really matters. Right now his words are not brave and take no courage. He's never made a speech or taken action that took guts or grit for the good of the country, ever.
If he did have the fortitude to do something good for the country in opposition to the Democrat party, he would have refused to call half the country "semi-fascists" and "extremists." If he had character and honor, he would have refused to divide us further, but the Democrat Party needed him to be divisive so he chose to do what's best for the party over what is best for the country. That's Joe Biden.
Not so much for the party as for him. He needs the party more than they need him. Right now they need him as a flak-catcher. It's probably his most important job right now. We'll know when the party is done with him, because he'll be removed from power lickety-split.
