I think Biden lives at center. I think his flaw is not understanding the time (and perhaps thinking he was hired for other purposes than to calm the waters and restore sanity and justice). I agree he is a disappointment. I do blame those closest to him as much as him. Also he's better at foreign than domestic policy. But he sure doesn't seem to get the existential threat in domestic policy ie voting rights.

I completely agree with you. We thought The Freedom to Vote Act written by Klobuchar & Manchin did a possible job of threading the waters between States Right and Federal Government. It seemed to me that the activists felt it didn’t go far enough. How would you thread this needle?

Somehow "activists" have never learned not to let their Perfect be the enemy of everyone's Good. I don't know the answer. I do not feel that our Republic can survive this. Assuming we survive Putin.
