Joe Biden shows that he isn't just President of the United States, but master of the oxymoron

From Business Insider -

Biden insists McConnell is a 'rational Republican' who may come around on gun control, even as the GOP blocks legislation

President Joe Biden insisted Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is "rational" and could agree to gun control, despite the party's longtime refusal to seriously entertain policy changes on firearms. 

On Monday, Biden told reporters that he was unsure of whether Republicans would compromise, noting that he has "not been negotiating with any of the Republicans yet." 


"Rational Republican"?  In reference to Mitch McConnell?  Really?


See: Garland, Merrick.


McConnell may (or may not) be "rational," but that doesn't preclude him from being "evil."


Not by a long shot.


Expect future White House speeches and press releases to be littered with words and phrases like "jumbo shrimp," "working vacation," and/or "accurate estimate."
