  1. My the pictures are bigger than th3e entire article. If I wanted a portrait gallery I would have googled one.

  2. Biden isn’t perfect. Never has been. Nevertheless, I liked him back in 2007 and voted for him in the primary.

    Dems, Libs, and traditional Repubs need to unite now or look to Hungary for what comes next.

    We can only argue and debate policies and positions if we have a functioning, free and fair democracy.

  3. I’d argue that anyone who wasn’t already motivated to vote Dem has really been exercising the ol’ cognitive dissonance, but it was a good speech.

  4. Dude has never lost an election, after least in my lifetime. Give him some fucking respect.

  5. I don’t think people truly understand the gravity of the importance of his speech in this moment, at this inflection point of the world. He rose to the occasion and answered the call, regardless if you’re pro-Biden or not.

    The domino effect he set in motion for the future of the US &, by extension, the global Democracy movement is hard to fully understand, but the history books of the future will point to this pivotal moment that was met by an 82 year old *literal* average Joe.

    The alternative path is much darker, and much more devastating, both domestically (*Im American*) and internationally.

    Sorry we’re putting everyone through this.

  6. Y’all are looking for the perfect candidate. 😂 good luck on that one…

  7. The speech of our lives. I don’t think a President has delivered a message as powerful since JFK saying “ask not what…..”.

  8. Dammit, I talked to my millenial kids at lunch today; asked them if they watched the SOTU.

    They didn’t and started talking about “dementia Joe”. My own kids are so uninformed, they complain about Biden being old, but don’t even bother to watch a speech or consume any serious serious news.

    We’ve got a lot of work to do, folks.

  9. He came to my campus to campaign in 2012 and it was crazy how captivating his presence was, he had the crowd wrapped around his finger. He’s not at that level anymore, but it’s not all gone either.

  10. I think he just used his noted speech impediment to emphasise his point.

    Trump is a paedo traitor.

  11. I love how the Republicans are saying his speech was too partisan, but what the hell does Trump do EVERY FUCKING TIME he makes a speech? The hypocrisy is unreal. All Trump does is make partisan speeches!!!

  12. You know how you know it was amazing? You know how you know he crushed it?

    Right wing media stations aren’t saying he looked lost or confused or stumbled over his words. They’re not attacking the policy positions he laid out. They’re saying he was “overhyped” and “jacked up” and he “must have been on some sort of upper drug”.

    That’s how you know. They know this was their last major shot to really attack him and he just crushed it. In front of over 30 million viewers and many more who no doubt have watched multiple clips since then, he showed he’s up to the task of being POTUS for another term.

    They know now that their guy Donald is toast as long as everyone votes. So check your voter registration monthly, and weekly as we get closer to November. And go out and vote for this guy to preserve democracy. Third party is a throwaway. One man can defeat Trump. It’s Joe Biden. He has done more than enough with policy wins to earn your vote.

  13. Did anyone think he took cue from John Oliver to accept his age? When he spoke about he’s career and live long dedication to politics examples of his age, I saw the John Oliver skit for SOU and him embracing his age.

  14. Please everyone:

    I know I keep saying this, but it’s really important for everyone to get all the 18-30 yr olds you know to vote.

    It is their future on the line more than anyone else.

    And if they come out in big numbers, politicians will start to pay attention to them; it’s that simple.

  15. Imagine this was a retirement speech and he was aggressively campaigning for a younger ticket he picked…

  16. Still, he is just terrible at public speaking. It is honestly hard to listen to. Don’t get me wrong, I’m voting for Biden over Dump. I just wanted someone else at the helm.

  17. Have they accounted for his change in behaviour from normal speeches to this one?

  18. Is there any evidence there was an impact on the general population?
