Beto: "Biden failed this country in the most important job he had" [View all]

🙄

Beto who can’t even win a race himself has jumped on the blame Biden Bandwagon.

The growing anti-Biden chorus tells me Republicans are in trouble—especially after losing a series of elections recently.

I hope representatives call Republicans out for being the losers that they are so people see what they’re trying to do.
