It was a campaign speech. Establishment Dems probably loved it. Republicans probably hated it. Progs, I don't know. He didn't mention a lot of modern woke stuff, so they probably didn't like it either.
He showed me he had a lot more energy than what you would expect from a supposedly frail dementia patient.
It was a great State of the Union speech as he touched on all of the bases that Americans care about and also to highlight his successes in the last 4 years. He needed to highlight his accomplishments and the differences between him and his predecessor! Democracy is on the table and America does not need a wannabe dictator!!
If Trump was up there, he would be giving a campaign speech as he does every time he is in court on one of his criminal and civil trials! I can’t understand Americans voting for a twice-impeached criminal, grifter, habitual liar, amoral, communist-loving, thin-skinned weak
man! Sad!
Biden made it very clear from the start that he and Democrats are for Democracy, whereas kneecapped and corrupted Republicans lead by Trump are for Autocracy (either Orbanism or Putinism), and Americans have to make a choice by their votes, and we cannot depend on the Supreme Court because those far-right extremist judges have been betraying us by gutting our basic rights to vote and to have bodily autonomy.
McCornell who selfishly decided to not to impeach Trump despite his hatred for Trump deserve to have this SOB back to his party.
Is it an effective strategy to angrily yell like you're the grumpy old guy from "Grand Torino"?
Besides which, who is there left to buy off with taxpayer money, anyway?
Based on pandering alone, Joe should be 100% approval rating instead of under 40%
His inflation was so high, the pander dollar ain't worth what it used to be.
Since Joe took office, your dollar buys 80 cents worth of stuff
Now, that's a tax you can be proud of lol
Dantes, you've crossed the line with the Pelosi cunnilingus crack! (See what I did there?)
That's a vision worse than the bombing of Hiroshima
As Roberto Duran famously said............No mas, no Mas
Midget Johson looks so humiliated by the truth told by Biden. Rs are nothing but an embarrassment for what they become, and they should be called traitors to the US and allied NATO. Even domestically, they allowed chaos because their further demands it.
Scholar Kathleen Belew's book "Bring the War Home" tells us that the origin and the formation of US militia groups goes back to Vietnam war, where those veterans felt betrayed by the US government, because they were told to retreat, not to win. They now became anti-government/anti-communism/White Supremacy militia groups to start waging war against US, their resurgence (Proud Boys, Oath Keepers) under Trump is explained for the same reasons. Their movement now is combined with Evangelicalism, militant Christians dominated by their apocalyptic idealism, and US Souther States' apartheid policies. It is very fascinating interview with Belew by Jen Rubin
People should compare Biden’s SOTU speech last night with one of Trump’s.
Trump attempting to read the teleprompter is simply painful.
The GOP criticism of Biden being too political and not reaching across the aisle is also hilariously ironic coming from a party that politicizes everything and never works with the Democrats (killing the border bill that they negotiated is just one example of that).
The line “you can’t love your country only when you win” really is Biden framing the GOP perfectly.
Stop your incessant whining already. Be better.
I think we can all agree that Marjorie Taylor Greene, dressed in MAGA red from head to toe, was an embarrassment. The trash needs to be taken out of Congress.
I don’t remember the Dems interrupting gop presidents like the Nazis have with Biden. We really are becoming a banana republic with behavior like we saw last night. Then the rebuttal was a joke. Cute but dumb as a rock. The maga morons were definitely on display. LOL 😂
I have been a Republican since 1980 and I have never been so embarrassed as I was by my party last night. Heckling and abusing their right to speak was just awful. MTG seems to be the leader of the House Caucus and I cannot support this wasteful Congress.
NO Legislative Agenda. Wasting Millions on crooked investigations. Blaming the border issues on everyone else when you won't fund Judges to process or beds to incarcerate. But it is fun and great click-bait to send them to other cities away from their hearings.
So you say deport them. No due process no asylum hearing. We have a Constitution and it applies to them as well.
Their answer? All will be better if Trump is elected. I'm not in the tax bracket of the people that he helps. He wants to attack the state in which I live but ignores the issue that cause people living on the street. A federal court made the ruling that we cannot remove them without housing them. But that doesn't play on the news as well as showing the problem and making up funny names for the Governor.
How about we do this. Recruit good candidates and win elections in California. No. We run Garvey who can't even keep his personal life straight. BUT HE WAS A DODGER. Real qualifications. Joke
Both of you want to come on here and spew word vomit,
but you can't go see a chick since 2008 and you can't / won't support the site
by keeping your mail privileges up ?
You look like a blog troll and a total cheap fuck bruh !!!
And that's just the truth bruh !!!
Go see some chicks, get some mail, participate with the ladies, maybe get your level up to a level one, and then come back on here and blog away.
You made your point about supporting the site, which everyone should do since this site brings joy to many....as it has brought to me over the years.
However, this is a political blog and you are ignoring all of the very valid points being raised against the crazy conservatives that have taken over the GOP.
For all you know, these guys may have an account for "play" and another account for political discourse since people have been attacking those who have views that run counter to others.
You can make your point about the site and also address the valid criticisms raised.
BellyBoarder lies just as well as Trump and Biden.............. or his memory is shit lol
"I don’t remember the Dems interrupting gop presidents like the Nazis have with Biden."
EVERY SOTFU (state of the fucking union) speech has hecklers from the other party
It's exactly why some of SCOTUS don't even show up
They've talked about how bad it is from BOTH sides, much of it not picked up by the TV mikes
The whole fucking political speech sideshow of this shit should be shelved and go back to the old days when the brain dead Presi of the moment just wrote a letter.
Namaste bitches
There ARE a bunch of pathetic fools speechifying and fucking up in the Pub party, that is a true statement!
Of course, that doesn't mean that the Dem party has also NOT been completely taken over by it's far left.........also a true statement. How else do you explain the Biden admin's crap? Not going to give you a list, it's too long.........if you don't know it, then you're just a posturing moron sycophant for that side of the aisle.
That having been said, the Pubs are putting on a shit show lol
In 2020, Biden called HIMSELF a "transition" president and also stated that he didn't expect to go beyond 1 term.
You can't blame Trump for Biden reneging on his word now and thinking he's the next reincarnation of LBJ and FDR. This OLD fuck mentally deranged POS needs to bail out like LBJ did.........let someone new, other than KH, come up and KICK the living shit out of Trump.
Literally anybody with a pulse and a warm breath can beat the Don but we got this screaming crazy old grandpa shuffling at us with his beady eyes, hair plugs and veneer teef........fucking crazy! AND, he might just lose to the blimp lol
AND, Trump.........wtf color is he anyway? You look behind his ears and there's pink white skin but the rest of his face is orange..........wtf is that???
Holy fuck! American Gothic in real life, please wake me up from this horrible nightmare
Balls
That's my point. Why are we running these candidates? The real problem is the primary system. Unless you are radical right or left you have no chance of advancing. Why are we not running quality candidates in CA. Don't tell me real conservatives can't win. Regan did, on a platform of strong military and fiscal responsibility. RINO that
Oh give me a break! I'm tired of the media saying the public doesn't want to see these same guys running for President again. Well, put that on Trump! In the last century, what loser of a Presidential election has tried again? ONLY TRUMP.
(And this asshole had the audacity to not even admit defeat graciously! And because he's leading a cult, the majority of his party believes Biden stole the election! Unforgivable!)
You'd expect the current President to run for reelection. Who hasn't? LBJ was running again until his poll numbers tanked, he didn't do well in early primaries & he wanted to save face.
If Biden had said he wasn't going to run again, that would've made him a lame duck President. Meaning the asshole Republicans would've waited on passing any legislation he wanted EVEN MORESO, wanting to wait until the next (hopefully Republican, to them) won.
Get a new candidate now? Have you forgotten the chaos that erupted in '68 when there were violent protests at the Democratic convention and they chose Humphrey (who hadn't even run yet) as their nominee over the guy who'd been winning most of the primaries? It split the party. You remember the outcome, right? Nixon won.
'How dumb do you MAGAs feel after the beatdown Grandpa Joe just gave all the lame ass'
Well I'm not a maga person and don't really know any, other then those supporting trump here.
BUT you could tell they'd rested him for a couple of days as well as had him every dementia drug available.
How could you tell? Cause they were wearing off towards the end.
Who ever planned the speech made a mistake starting off with ukrain - most people in the US are sick of supporting another country while the US is ignored. Also dumb to even mention the border cluster fuck. Just reminds everyone that the crisis is biden's fault. Also didn't say anything about Gaza - genocide joe staying far away from that one.
Did it change anyone's mind? Probably not - he's still older then dirt & still has dementia symptoms. AND still corrupt AF!
Saw this last night before coughing joe took the stage.
Oh God, you talk about someone who shouldn't mention a topic that he's vulnerable on. Then you call BIDEN corrupt?! C'mon, man, you know very well Trump is the KING of corruption! YOU should never have mentioned that.
And obviously Biden had to make a push for why defending Ukraine was crucial. He put his spin on the border issue that the public might not know--that he compromised with Republicans on it yet they wouldn't pass it because their cult leader Trump told them not to.
And you must not have watched his whole speech (maybe YOU were the one getting senile?!) because he mentioned Gaza at length. In fact, it was in all the TV network summations of his speech.
“ Of course, that doesn't mean that the Dem party has also NOT been completely taken over by its far left.........also a true statement.”
That isn’t a true statement. Obviously. You are constantly speaking in false equivalencies like you have to be fair and balanced to both sides when they are not equally bad and dysfunctional.
The far right is a much larger percentage of the GOP (and has taken over the party) than the size of the far left that almost never gets their way. Almost no one takes the far left seriously, but the far right is essentially the GOP now. Moderate Republicans will be voting for Biden or abstaining because Trump is unelectable and the MAGA movement is based on hate and divisiveness.
I’ve never felt this secure about the presidency in a long time. Biden clearly has his flaws, but he’s definitely not a criminal, not unhinged, not a dictator, and not in it solely for his own personal gain. Biden should easily win in November.
Yes talked about Gaza but was crap and pr - building a 'port' would require:
1) Army Corps of Engineers
2) Thousand of troops - you want US troops on the ground in Gaza???
3) billions of dollars - especially since they're planning on shipping the materials to cypress then by ship to gaza along with ... more weapon shipments.
It'd be cheaper to tell netenyahoo to allow aid trucks in or lose US support ie no more weapons.
Which he should do anyway. They proved their point now they've become war criminals.
The borders his mess and he even said he welcomed people into the US in one of his few speeches after elected. Did he not expect them to come from every 3rd world nation after saying that?
The bill was crap and wouldn't have done anything to control the border - just read it, I have. Even the border patrol didn't support it - or biden for that matter.
I thought the most important thing for Biden was to show he has mental clarity and is capable. I believe he accomplished that. If he can fix the border problem by election day I will vote for him.
YES, he has energy after consuming 'something'. We haven't seen that screaming and racing speech ever.....maybe they need a smaller dose for next time.
