Maybe.
But I can't think of a single person who would try and could pull it off this late.
I find this fascinating.
I don't see why anyone still thinks it won't be Biden vs Trump (outside of the straight up "one dies or suffers a serious injury").
Joe Biden ruled as too incompetent to face charges

But you characterized it as the Biden Administration having to be dragged kicking and screaming to the negotiation table.
They were already there, the GOP just decided to demand something on foreign policy instead.
I don't think it will have a lot of effect, no.
Most GOP supporters don't actually care what their representatives do as long as it is "own the libs" so as long as the GOP can say "we had to do it because Dems are bad" they will buy it.
The few who care about the border as a real issue and not just "all immigrants are bad and we should get rid of them" might be upset.
I think it does help some more independent "don't pay much attention" types if the narrative "We had a deal, one they asked for, but they tanked it because Trump told them to" sticks.
Places committed to a partisan view aren't going to see much effect, I think.
Mitt Romney has an amazing record of managing to be on the wrong side of almost every issue. It seems his failed bid for the Presidency broke him.
Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, and Cassidy Hutchinson add to a growing list of Repugs backing good old JOE BIDEN. Liz who voted on Trump policies 92% of the time has seen the light after witnessing a POTUS trying to steal an election and circumvent the votes of a democratic country.
To turn a phrase - with enemies like these, who needs friends!?
Liz Cheney has seen a light, but it's a train steaming from the other end of the tunnel of her political career!
In the 2012 Presidential debates, Romney warned Americans of the Russian threat. Obama dismissed this basically as old school, cold war thinking. About a year and a half later, Russia invaded Crimea and the Eastern Ukraine.
I point this out because sometimes Romney gets it right. The two candidate's position on Russia in 2012 is interesting.
To be fair, no one in 2012 expected Crimea to happen. There were a series of events - Yanukevich's turnaround on Ukrainian integration with the EU, Euro Maidan, the overthrow of Y, the new government and its refusal to allow the Russian Navy to retain Sevastopol, etc.
Are you seriously arguing that Romney crystal-balled that whole series of events??
Says the guy who still argues that the 2020 election was "stolen"....To turn a phrase - with enemies like these, who needs friends!?

I have never agreed with Mitt's policies but at least he is a man of principle
UNLIKE the orange stain.To turn a phrase - with enemies like these, who needs friends!?

C'mon Mandrill, you ought to know better. You're appropriating Squeezer's act!Says the guy who still argues that the 2020 election was "stolen"....
You have to give some credit to someone who had good insight on an issue. Better to have insight than no sight.
Russia had already encroached on Georgia's territory. Of course, you could say that if Russia got everything they wanted from and within the Ukraine maybe there would not have been a war. The Russian's conditioned Ukrainian sovereignty on subordination.
Maybe not initially. Euro Maidan was shocking to a lot of Russian-identifying Ukrainians. I lost a buddy who was a Russian-identifying guy from Donetsk who couldn't handle Kiyev gravitating towards the EU and away from Moscow.
Look how the expression shows dominance. Donnie looks like a school girl wating to see of she gets kissed or dumped. Putin is giving the I own you look and you don't dare fuck with me
This is one that I had to eat crow on.
I thought he was just being weird about the past with some view to a Reagan like worldview or something, but he was right that Putin was going to be a problem in a way I underestimated.
I thought that this photo is the tell.
Putin has a 'private' conversation with no media and nobody from the WH and this was the presser afterwards.
