    As I said, I’m much happier with him after the presser. He did pretty well. I suppose everyone will see what they wanted to see to begin with.

    WTG, the entire Democrat party has been touting how you must vote for us to save democracy. For months. They’re very committed to it …until they think they’re losing.

      Wouldn't it be good if Joe came right out and said "Look, I know I've never been the best at public speaking and playing to the cameras, but I KNOW how to get the job done! I have an effective team that I trust to get their jobs done without being charged with any crimes. Look what we've been able to accomplish so far with the political winds blowing against us the whole time."

        @Rontuner - I thought he said pretty much that, especially the part about getting the job done, during the presser last night.

          That was what I heard.

                    h/t @CHAS

                    When I cast my vote for President Biden, I wasn't expecting much. I just wanted trump out of office.
                    .
                    I knew he was old.
                    I knew he had a stutter.
                    I knew he had a rep for "gaffes."
                    I didn't care. Just wanted trump gone.
                    .
                    Four years later, things are different.
                    I wasn't expecting that President Biden would be the most legislatively successful President in my lifetime.
                    .
                    I wasn't expecting him to help expand NATO.
                    I wasn't expecting him to lower insulin & inhalers.
                    I wasn't expecting him to create & recover 15m jobs.
                    I wasn't expecting him to bring manufacturing back.
                    I wasn't expecting him to forgive student debt.
                    .
                    But he did ALL those things, and more.
                    He surpassed my expectations by a lot.
                    And he has more planned for 2025-2028.
                    .
                    He's not a master orator,
                    He doesn't move so smoothly
                    But neither did FDR from his wheelchair.
                    .
                    Meanwhile, trump is STILL a threat.
                    He wants to be a dictator.
                    He wants to stay out of prison.
                    He wants revenge on his enemies.
                    He wants to take away from the poor and middle class and give to the ultra wealthy.
                    His Project 2025 will enable a national abortion ban to criminalize women seeking safe and legal abortions.
                    His Project 2025 will take away the rights of our LGBTQ family and friends.
                    His Project 2025 will transform the government into a loyalty pledge, not to America but to him ALONE.
                    We might never have another free election.
                    .
                    THAT is what is at stake in this election.
                    .
                    We can continue to progress with Biden policies, or we can let trump destroy democracy as we know it.
                    .
                    If you're looking for someone who's young and athletic, go watch a fucking movie.
                    .
                    I'll take the old guy who needs a nap while saving democracy over the old guy trying to overthrow democracy who needs a legal team.
