Is Joe Biden the American Brezhnev? | Ben Judah
www.theguardian.com
Leaders in the late Soviet Union wilfully ignored the need for structural reform. The Democratic contender should take note, says author Ben Judah

It still has to do the obligatory "of course the USSR's politics were totalitarian and evil and the US's politics are open and free" bullshit, but kudos to this guy for calling Biden the leader of a nation in rapid decline on March 6th.

    Brezhnev was the nuclear superpower equivalent of a pacifist so he's automatically a million times better than Biden

      Another similarity between Brezhnev and Biden we can add to the list: until the end of their reign both remain committed to war in Afghanistan.
