Barack Obama was right to be wary of Joe Biden's ability to 'f—k things up'
[NYPOST] Barack Obama
That’s just how white folks will do you....
’s gift for soaring oratory
...is that what they’re calling it? How odd...
in front of big audiences was a formidable political weapon, but probably the most important thing he ever said was uttered in private.

Speaking to a fellow Democrat about Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. SOld, boring, a plagiarist, fond of hair sniffing and grabbing the protruding parts of women, and not whatcha call brilliant... or is that an act?...
being the party’s nominee in 2020, Obama famously warned, "Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f—k things up."
And yet he supported the man’s candidacy. So he should get partial credit for the result.
There is no legitimate claim the former president was wrong about his vice president.

The evidence that he was on target is everywhere, from the border to the economy to the crime explosion on Biden’s watch.

Then there is Ukraine, which offers proof of Obama’s point in a different way.

It shows that even on the rare occasion when Biden gets the big policy right, he still finds ways to "f—k things up."

Witness the bizarre timing of the president’s recent statements about Ukraine’s bid to join NATO
...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. A collection of multinational and multilingual and multicultural armed forces, all of differing capabilities, working toward a common goal by pulling in different directions...
and his administration’s contorted defense of why it is planning to send cluster bombs to the Ukrainian military.

Each misstep on a key detail undercuts the overall enterprise and risks the loss of public support for an expensive foreign policy.
