This is not satire. Senator Chris Coons marched in lockstep with his GOP allies piling on Joe Biden’s response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine according to reports now running on NPR and in VanityFair :
Though Russian forces have apparently crossed the Ukrainian border, both the White House and Zelensky at first appeared wary of formally declaring it an “invasion,” a distinction that would trigger the severe — and, for much of Europe, economically costly — sanctions that Biden has threatened. That led to attacks from Republicans, who have painted Biden as weak on Russia, and to calls from even some Democrats to immediately begin imposing “significant costs on President Putin and the Kremlin,” as Senator Chris Coons said Monday.
