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.

    When the other guy refuses to admit he lost an election, refuses a peaceful transfer of power, organizes an insurrection to take the government by force, and repeatedly says he’ll use his office as a weapon to punish his enemies, it’s completely legitimate to say the other guy is the harbinger of death for democracy. The speech was unlike any SOTU from prior generations because we’ve never been in this state before.

    And you must not have been listening, because I certainly heard an awful lot of plans for the future.
