it was a masterful play by the Dems.

I don’t care one bit if he makes a mistake or misspeaks during a speech as long as he corrects himself or admits he made a mistake.

One thing you never want is a President who never thinks he is wrong. That is a recipe for disaster.

Biden rarely stutters, but what he does do regularly is lose his train of thought and mumbles, then trails off.

Biden does not criticize the press because they press is in his back pocket, fawning all over him. Biden has the least negative press coverage of any president. The only president to get as much positive news coverage, was Obama.

The news media routinely lied about Trump, claiming he removed the bust of MLK from the Oval Office, lied for four years about Russian collusion, lied that he had advanced copies of Hilary's WikiLeaks emails, lied that he gases protesters in DC to clear the way for a photo op, etc..., etc..., etc... you are even repeating some of the media lies in your post, which shows how destructive to our nation that fake news is.

So when Trump is receiving only 5% positive news coverage and 62% negative coverage, he might be justified in complaining about it.



The press practically beged Psaki to tell them how they can help to better spread his message.

Both false assertions. first of all, Trump never suggested we inject ourselves with bleach. Secondly, it was Fauci telling Trump early on that COVID was likely to become seasonal.

This was about the same time Fauci was telling the people not to worry about COVID, told us there is no reason to be walking around wearing a mask, advised us to go on cruise ships, telling us not to be concerned. And now in hindsight, you people pretend it was Trump saying these things, when Trump was just repeating what his "medical experts" told him.

Another false assertion on your part. Trump said "fake news" was the enemy of the people. Wouldn't you agree that when our press lies, makes up false narratives and portrays them as factual, and purposely misleads the people with lies, distortions and outright falsehoods, that this would be extremely destructive to our nation?

Once again, Biden only has a 19% negative press, while Trump had 62% negative. This definitely affects opinion polls when the news is hostile to one president, and fawning in their coverage with another president.

I wake up every morning knowing I won't have to read those stupid, dishonest, and nasty barbs Trump would tweet out. I tell you its a great feeling.
Biden tells the entire white population that it's systemically racist, and a stain on our nation’s soul. This is much worse than any stupid barb Tweeted out by Trump.

I believe President Biden tries hard not to say the wrong thing... and, that would cause anyone to hesitate when answering questions.

Joe Biden is not a perfect person. He is a human being.
But, Senators that have known him and worked with him over the years all respect him and say he is a good man....
and, he hasn't surrounded himself with "yes men" and criminals...

I can only imagine how difficult the job of the President is.

It's good that we have a thinking person in the White House again.
I agree he isn't "perfect" because he's a proven plagiarist, racist, and serial liar. I disagree that he's a "good man." He's gutter trash and doesn't have an honest or a decent bone in his body.

Senate Celebrates 'Friend' Joe Biden, Paying Tribute to 44-Year Career

While his colleagues noted his achievements, they called him 'friend' and spoke of his character: passionate, full of integrity and trustworthy....

Another reason to despise him. Fifty years in government enriching himself while contributing nothing to society except failed policies and trillions of dollars of debt.

He's a swamp creature and corrupt in addition to being a plagiarist, racist and serial liar.

Thanks for the reminder.

or, one might say that he's lived his life in public service and has learned some things along the way.

sorry you're so unhappy.

I don’t watch the you tube videos either, see it on the news and even more I see how his policies are effecting our business. I’ve seen him in his past campaigns and Vice President debates. Yes he is having issues

^^^ This right here tells you all you need to know.
Let me translate that for you... He is the epitome of the sleazy career politician that has NEVER held a job in the private sector . Him and his colleague 'friends' are the reason we are 28 trillion dollars in debt and are controlled by an increasingly corrupt authoritarian federal government !
