Biden uses feisty State of the Union to contrast with Trump, sell voters on a second term - eviltoast
Biden's third such address will be something of an on-the-job interview, as the nation's oldest president tries to quell voter concerns about his age and job performance while sharpening the contrast with Donald Trump.

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.

    Any serious opposition to Israel’s genocide would have been nice. Not bypassing Congress to rush weapon sales to them would have been nice.

      You understand the alternative is going to do both of those things way more, right

        You understand that criticizing Biden and supporting Trump aren’t the same thing, right?

          When it’s either/or, as it ultimately is - I do not.

          And the fact that it’s the russian trolls’ M.O. is not random chance.

          You have Jan 6, 2021-early 2024 to criticize away. Time’s up. You may recommence criticizing without helping trump on November 10th, 2024.

          Notably, you can join in on your favorite solution without criticizing at any time.

            Your lack of understanding is your problem
