SWIFT status from Russian banks (including the oil banks) back then to prevent this, and save lives? Biden said he always knew that his threatened half-ass sanctions wouldn't stop Putin, but these bigger ones might have. At least why didn't he try to use this threat?
The answer is that Biden is weak and didn't want to do those moves....and Putin knew it, which is a large part of why he invaded.
What is really frustrating is that yesterday you gave Biden credit for these tough sanctions that were brought into play far too late to attempt to avert a crisis.
