In times of crisis and uncertainty, healthy leadership is critical. Here are 20 simple thoughts on this president's response to the Russian rebellion—and what could have been
Thank you Steven Beschloss for this reassuring post! Thank goodness Joe Biden is president! Hopefully those who are doubting his abilities listen up and learn! This absolutely is his best time for being our leader!!!
We are dealing with leadership who succeeded at fueling and enabling peoples' worst instincts. Not easy to put that back under the rock. BTW, the historian you are thinking of is my brother.
So much sanity and maturity. Exasperating that it warrants this spot on commentary.
Steady on, Ship of State. Your helmsman is a Wise Elder. So well said, Steven.
Forwarding to current House 'speaker'; may not do any good but worth a try....
As my grandfather once told me; your character is defined by what you do when no one is watching.
Well said. After 4 years of presidential egomania, it’s refreshing to have a leader who just focuses on getting stuff done.
With all going on, we can be thankful this July 4th that Joe Biden leads our country.
It’s so easy to take presidential leadership for granted!
Joe Biden is everything that Donald Trump is not. And thank god for that.
Grateful
So exquisitely written! So eloquent! jbr
Thank you, JBR.
I'm so glad we have Biden for our president! He keeps showing us why we were wise to choose him, and why we'd be wise to give him another term.

We haven't heard the last of Yevgeny Prigozhin. Steady onwards
Agree, but he is just as much a deadly criminal as Putin.
Think Sammy the Bull vs Teflon Don. Both crookeder than snakes but one was the boss, the other his primary henchman
Of course this list connects directly with Trump. But enough of Trump, that insane babbler.
73.6 million Americans voted to re-elect Trump in 2020. Happily for the world, that was 7 million short of what Joe Biden got.
But how can this nation have 73,600,000 adults so (pick one or more):
• stupid
• warped
• racist
• fascist
• uneducated
• ill-educated
• hateful
• Fill in the blank _____
These 73,600,000 had had nearly four full years to watch the chaos of Trump.
Why did they want to rehire him? As one of our most thoughtful historians, what theories do you have?
Thank you for your thoughts.

A couple of close friends who remain Republican are none of those things. They are simply
what their parents were.
Well said, sir!
Thank you for the reminder of what true leadership looks like.
I have so much admiration and trust for Joe Biden. He is a grown up's grown up. A steady and focused leader. ✨️
