There are no words. None.
HARWOOD: As you reflect on the span of your career, both in the Senate and in the administration, what do you think of as things that you and your peers got done, succeeded at? And what do you think you haven't gotten done, left on the table?
BIDEN: Back in the '70s, we ended that damn war. That's why I ran, the Vietnam War.
Just as a reminder, Biden ran for Senate in 1972. He was sworn in 1973. The Paris Peace Accords were signed that same month.
So apparently Biden managed to end the Vietnam War in only a few weeks. That's impressive.
It's even more impressive when you consider that Biden also claimed that he had "drifted" through his job and had a great deal of trouble "focusing" in the first months. But despite these handicaps, a drifting unfocused Biden still managed to end the Vietnam War in only a few weeks.
