Biden’s futile voting-rights push tops off a disappointing first year

A year ago this week, Joe Biden took the oath of office as the 46th President of the United States while promising to dedicate his “whole soul” to the mission of reducing toxic polarization in American politics after four years of Donald Trump’s selfish efforts to stoke it.

“We have never, ever, ever failed in America when we have acted together. And so today, at this time and in this place, let us start afresh. All of us,” Mr. Biden said in his inaugural address. “Politics need not be a raging fire destroying everything in its path. Every disagreement doesn’t have to be a cause for total war.”

Mr. Klain’s strategy was doing serious damage to Mr. Biden’s approval rating among the American public well before the President delivered a speech last week in Georgia that did almost as much to fan the raging fires of division in U.S. politics as Mr. Trump’s tweets. His address in support of voting-rights legislation before Congress might have energized progressives.

His blunder-laden saga in Australia has been a textbook example of how not to conduct PR and communications. Opinion This is a rorschach test. You will see what you will see. I think there are people who will hate him forever now but for others he has exalted to the zenith of heroism. We always judge in present and revise in hindsight and potentially he could become derisive and vice versa.
