No President since Roosevelt has come into a worse situation, and, in many ways, only Lincoln's arrival in Washington rivals what Biden has had to deal with.

Let us pray that he is up to the challenge. He is probably the only one that could have won that election of the major party candidates. I wish he was younger, but we have to play the hand we are dealt. He has tremendous experience coming into his Cabinet. I am sure that he will also be blamed for the utter criminal incompetence of the prior administration.
