I'm under no illusions. @JoeBiden and his team will make mistakes. But they will try to do right. And here's what they won't do:
--Betray the country to a sworn enemy
--Try to undermine the international system
--Put children in cages
--Promote white supremacists & racism

The Biden Administration will make mistakes like any other and have unfulfilled ambitions and be frustrated by our politics. But unlike their predecessors they will attempt to do what is right, reject doing what is wrong, and serve the country and not themselves.
They will tell the truth and follow the law and seek to leave Americans better off at the end of their term than they were when they started. And they will, as Biden has promised, serve all Americans, Republicans and Democrats, rich and poor, people of all races.
Being better than the worst ever is not enough. They have a chance to do great things and I hope they do. But the moment they take office they will begin with one of their most meaningful achievements and that is defeating Trump and ending his failed and damaging presidency.
