Biden tweet about Putin from 2 years ago spotted aging badly after yesterday's presidential prediction

Not unlike Joe Biden’s notorious promise to “shut down the virus” back when he was running for president (you know how that turned out), the U.S. president’s comments about Vladimir Putin have been spotted aging badly:

Two years ago:

Vladimir Putin doesn’t want me to be President. He doesn’t want me to be our nominee. If you’re wondering why — it’s because I’m the only person in this field who’s ever gone toe-to-toe with him.

— Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) February 21, 2020

Yesterday:

Biden: Putin has decided to invade Ukraine, will do so in coming days https://t.co/8ryoEErWxY pic.twitter.com/Y8eLHUR8J7

There’s quite a shift there.

I'm not sure there's ever been a tweet that aged worse than this… https://t.co/2Nowl0Mgow

Biden’s claims and promises during the campaign rarely seem to match up with what’s actually being delivered.
