That was one of the more interesting SOTU addresses I’ve seen. Personally, I think he said most of the things that needed to be said, and he said them reasonably well. I’m sure he’s going to get some flack for attacking Trump directly (though not by name), but I was frankly glad to see it. Doing otherwise makes it seem like it’s just your typical election/political disagreements, but we’re past that now.
He really needed to expose the lie of “Sleepy Joe” and he absolutely did. Anyone who honestly thought he has mental deficiencies just got their ass handed to them by an 81 year old.
Agreed, he seemed on top of it the whole time, including while responding to the heckles. A few times he flubbed up his words a bit, but that’s been true forever. He’s not the orator Obama is, but it was and excellent speech.
He’s not the orator Obama is
No one is, and that’s just the truth. Obama will probably go down as the most effective public speaker we’ll see in our lifetime.
Also a truth is that everyone flubs the occasional word. You and I do it every day. Specially when stressed or tired.
Theres a stark difference between flubbing a word, and struggling to make a coherent statement.
From the SotU
Here’s a simple truth. You can’t love your country only when you win.
Nice.
Congressional Republican leaders showcased one of their newest lawmakers through the State of the Union rebuttal, hoping to make a generational contrast with Biden. Alabama Sen. Katie Britt, the youngest Republican woman elected to the Senate, painted a picture of a nation that “seems to be slipping away” and one where “our families are hurting.”
“Right now, our commander-in-chief is not in command. The free world deserves better than a dithering and diminished leader,” Britt said, speaking deliberately in an address from her home kitchen.
Dithering and diminished? You just got your clock cleaned by an old guy and you’re stumping for the convicted fraud who can’t remember who is currently the President? The one who thinks magnets are somehow turned off by water? The one who declares loudly they’ll change the state name of Pennsylvania if he doesn’t get enough votes? That one?
Katie Britt, I didn’t have any expectations - never heard of you before - but whoever wrote that for you stuck you in the woodchipper. Do better. Stop supporting a demented rapist. Stop destroying the rights of women to their own bodies.
Apparently that’s just how she is. She’s a lawyer, married to a retired football player
If you watch her speech it’s disturbing
It was so creepily stepford wives-y.
She did the Hannibal Lecter “not blinking” thing while alternating between smiles and rage that both never reached her eyes.
Also, kind of ballsy to ask “are you better off than you were four years ago.”
Like, yes, my life could be better, but I at least have toilet paper.
I would guess that was higher energy than Republicans expected. But, people always underestimate Joe.
Fox News is literally calling him, “Jacked-Up Joe” now hahaha.
Wasn’t Biden elected to dial back the fascism he’s gladly overseeing? The math ain’t mathing. This is why the message of Trump will be the end of democracy won’t work. There’s nothing democratic about the USA. This is not a hyperbole or exaggeration. He is perfectly fine COP City, NYC Subway searches and working with Right-Wing cultists on the border and Genocide.
Lol beta.
I’m not voting for joe because he’s complicit in genocide.
What disgusts me the most is all the posturing we’re seeing now in anticipation for the election.
It just shows he doesn’t have a genuine bone in his body.
I’m not voting for joe because he’s complicit in genocide.
So instead you’re going to help elect the guy who says Israel needs to finish the job in Gaza. Who says Russia should be able to do what they want. Your sensibilities are messed up.
I’m not voting for either candidate.
I lose either way.
You honestly believe that a Biden term would be as bad or worse then a Trump term? Seems insane.
I don’t think it really matters at this point.
The advantage of Trump winning is that people like you see there’s a problem.
If Biden wins, you pat yourselves on the back for a job well done.
It’s delusional and I don’t expect more from any of you at this point.
The more you support a slow loss, the less I take you seriously.
Low IQ detected. Maybe the lowest we ever observed.
You fit in with the tribe.
get the issues with Trump are more than valid but it is only democratic to vote Biden and not to try other parties especially the ones openly voicing how they are in line with what the citizens want?
very confused how the US thinks and works please make it make sense
what a speech
republicans and democrats do sound the same
my opponent is the harbinger of death for democracy you have to vote for me!
over the course of my life it has gone from two people debating how their views and policies will shape your life and your surroundings to just talking shit about your opponent in a long winded speech that has no actual meat to it and no discernible game plan for the next four potential years was discussed
Your script needs updating or tweaks. We’ve seen it used in this thread a handful of times already.
Don’t make it this easy lol. Beta.
