    Certainly not yours! I was wondering when you were gonna weigh in. Late to the party as always! Took you that long to get back from D.C.?? I’d have happily loaned you the bail money if you were short. Bring back any souvenirs like so many others? We’re all eagerly awaiting an inside account of how to overthrow your country and fail……

    You probably don't know Joe battled an extreme speech disability all his life....he grew up with a horrible stutter and has worked hard to correct it but I'm sure you can use his disability to frame him as a liberal incompetent..even with that Joe is the voice of reason after the liar in chief drooled all over himself for 4 years and two impeachments and not even having the class to accept defeat with dignity.Joe's got a big Trumpian mess to clean up and he's doing it without throwing coworkers under the bus or insulting half the country...we armed the Afghan national army and they surrendered to the Taliban...to the victor go the spoils of war...same all through history whether it was a bullet or a mule left behind....we wasted trillions training an army that in the end had no will to defend itself...backed a losing effort just like in S Vietnam..Joe ripped off the bandaid...

    I hate these types of critiques. Just because an effort doesn't completely fix a problem doesn't mean it isn't worth pursuing to mitigate it. We should be praising and supporting any efforts to address the housing crisis, not denigrating them for not being a panacaea.

    He's about the same as he was 30 years ago. He's able to answer questions from the press, that seems to me substantial evidence against your theory.

    He's a relatively weak public speaker, partly or entirely due to his stutter, don't know. But it is certainly not the case that he can't communicate effectively.

    There is a lovely correlation between the people who claim he lost the election and those who claim he can not communicate, which shows it's a comprehension problem...

    Attributing an old man’s onset of dementia to a “stutter” is ridiculous. The guy is barely there. Denial.

    What sort of monsters would chant "Fuck <you>" at an old man with dementia?

    South Carolina is one of the most ignorant states in the United States. I remember when I started high school and my father told me because I was 1/16 American Indian that I was legally prevented from attending public a White high school in South Carolina.

    I feel so safe, secure, and hopeful in Joe Biden's hands. I mean, don't you, too? Maybe we'll get some freaking potholes filled.

    I certainly don't feel like Biden will press the abort mission and explode the world out of ego like the last guy. So, yeah. I feel much more secure than I did a year ago.

    Hardly feel safe with fires, pandemic, attacks on my civil rights and attempts to suppress votes and subvert elections. At least I don't have a president groveling before Putin, or declaring himself in love with Kim Jong Un, suggesting injecting bleach, or throwing paper towels and temper tantrums over Saturday Night Live.

    The damage he has done is of such epic proportion that it is perhaps irrevocable. He opened such a deformed can of worms, that he released a political botulism on our country. He awakened a toxic ideology of hate and of bigotry that had lain dormant and weak. It spread faster than covid ever could. We are not past it and who knows if we ever will be. Trump is a scourge, one of those stains so bad you just have to throw away the shirt.

    And, he will run again.

    Truthfully though, maybe we needed this to happen. To see the true makeup of our country, to clearly glimpse how rooted those ideologies are in the bedrock of our history, in our very constitution.

    We have made strides in this country with civil rights, women's rights, gay rights, equality, etc. But, the root remained. You can pull a weed, but if you leave the root, the weed will grow back.
