Last week, during his embarrassing trip abroad, Biden claimed that sanctions were “never” meant to “deter” Putin from invading Ukraine.
That’s not what he said in January, nor what his entire national security team repeatedly argued before Putin’s invasion.

Since the invasion began, Biden has completely flipped because he knows his strategy failed.
But Joe Biden — who never takes responsibility for anything — will never admit he was wrong. Because if he was wrong, then Republicans — who tried to sanction Putin BEFORE the invasion — were right.
