Obama (weak) - draws red line, then does nothing. Bye bye Crimea.

Trump (strong) - Putin stays home, stays quiet.

Biden (weak) - Announces we won't fight, threatens to cut off Putin's allowance. Bye Bye Ukraine.

Bullies know to attack the weak, avoid the strong.

If this goes unopposed, look for a repeat in 2023 with the Baltic states. If the US will not respond, nobody else in NATO will. Bye Bye NATO, Baltic states.

Paying a heavy price for a more polite president.

The only Democratic President in my cognizant lifetime that you couldnt draw that same pattern on was Clinton. That is 'Epstein Island' Clinton, not the bit bleach *****.
