    Biden is right that Obama tapped him to negotiate with Republicans, although today’s NYT has a memorable anecdote: in one of those conversations, Biden appeared to endorse McConnell’s re-election. https://nyti.ms/2KBMDob  pic.twitter.com/P2vMKNbYA2

        This is true if we take "destroy social cons" to mean "give them a permanent Supreme Court majority which they can use to cement their grip on power in perpetuity"

        GOP has seen what incompetent fascism can get them. Biden as POTUS would give them the time to hone a more competent fascism. Biden 2029 = Cotton/Hawley 2024.

        This quip could just as easily be a negotiating tactic. “We want to see you come back (but your constituents may not bring you back if we don’t get a deal here).” Etc.
