The clip that Republicans will play if Biden’s the nominee – “Mr. President, my suggestion is don’t go”
April 5, 2019
Unfortunately I don't see an embed option, but if he's nominated, then a shortened clip of this CNN video will get rotated heavily next year, starting about 55 seconds in, where Biden says his response to question of whether to attack the bin Laden compound was "Mr. President, my suggestion is don't go".
Expect to see that heavily played if he's the nominee. Also, if Republicans want him to be the nominee, I expect it won't be played at all by the Republican elite prior to the nomination, although they can't control everybody on their side.
They will cut off the video right before he adds "there are two more things you should do first." The Dems can point that out; it won't help them very much.
He can also point out how he backtracked in 2015 as he was considering running against Clinton, and announced the secret and contradictory advice he supposedly later gave the president:
I don't think that will help him that much and may actually hurt him.
More here at The Atlantic on the questionable quality of his foreign policy advice in general.
Having said that, if he's the nominee he will be light years better than Trump, Pence, or whatever other disgrace the Republicans choose, and I'll give money and time to get Biden elected.
