Keith Duggan: Joe Biden's reputation was ruined in the morning, revived in the afternoon. It won't last

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% : Among those expressing sympathy was Donald Trump.
37% : "He totally f**ked us." And with Trump weighing in after returning from his gainful tour of the Middle East, Republican attention was once again fixed on Biden's authority while in office.
32% : "I really don't know what he said at the end of that sentence," Trump said.
28% : It took a full three weeks for Biden to exit the race, by which time Trump had survived, with miraculous narrowness, an assassination attempt which occurred on live television.
21% : "Whoever had control of the 'autopen' is looking to be a bigger and bigger scandal by the moment," Trump wrote on Saturday.
12% : The recasting of Biden's vainglorious insistence that he and he alone could defeat Trump, to the point where he and his inner circle placed personal ambition over the good of the people, intensified in the days after Kamala Harris's defeat by Trump in November.
