Good point, being a US politics thread I assumed we were talking about from the perspective of US voters.

Seen as a small part by whom? the ignorant and bigots? History is NOT in the eye of the beholder. 

Biden has exceeded expectations on domestic policies, it doesn't mean things can't get better. Like SvennoJ, I hope Harris does better too, there is a change to recalibrate and do the right thing here. 

The general US public. But you’re right that it’s probably the aspect of his presidency that deserves the most criticism and hopefully Kamala does better.

She already does better, severely diminishing the chances Trump will run away with the elections. Swing state votes lost because of #NeverBiden can safely vote for Harris. For that I'm very grateful to Biden for doing the right thing, albeit late and leaving a big mess in the ME.

It's pretty exciting for the possibility of Kamala Harris to become the first elected female president of the US. She stands a much better chance than Biden, especially against a pussy grabbing convicted felon.

Might be the over-reactionary in me that's making me cautiously optimistic this morning, but when Kamala wins, AIPAC will pose less of a threat post elections and hopefully Kamala will be emboldened to do right thing, I know it will mean Gazans haven't had a single night of good sleep for a year, but that's where we are. The UK can follow suit since their embarrassing stance is rooted in the USA stance and not wanting to leave their biggest ally completely alone. 

Don't forget Biden is a huge a zionist, belongs to a much older generation, and his friendship with Netanyahu has always been strong. Kamala can truly be unburdened by what has been when she wins. One can hope...
