Only when he's reading from a teleprompter that tells him to say those things.

Keep in mind that the acronym TOTUS was invented for him after he became president.

Doesn't matter. People already have their minds made up and early voting is going on.

We want calm. Middle of the road. Normal. Not hollering, making fun of people, name calling, boorishness, crude behavior, telling blatant lies. America wants a return to normalcy, we tried the weird and outlandish and Trump Fatigue has set in.
obama was the most corrupt president in history. He wasn't a good speaker, he hemmed and hawed his way through every speech, difficult to listen too. He is nothing more than a well polished con man who spend eight years doing everything in his power to bring America down. He divided the races, the riots and burning buildings in the major cities we see today are his legacy. He must be thrilled seeing America burn, as are all democrats..

No maybe about it. People know who they are going to vote for. At this point it would take a major fact based event to sway the average voter from their current position. As we saw innuendos about Russia won't cut it. There needs to be a smoking gun.

There are thousands of black Americans who say that Obama did nothing for them, for their communities and even made things worse. He may help Biden to cinch the votes of hard core leftists, but he surely is not some savior of black Americans. Quite the contrary.

Might be a bad idea seeing them both together. Could remind people how they didn’t do anything to help them and now out there saying they will be able to produce results helpful to those they forget about back then? Well where were they back then?
