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.

    what a speech

    republicans and democrats do sound the same

    my opponent is the harbinger of death for democracy you have to vote for me!

    over the course of my life it has gone from two people debating how their views and policies will shape your life and your surroundings to just talking shit about your opponent in a long winded speech that has no actual meat to it and no discernible game plan for the next four potential years was discussed

      Your script needs updating or tweaks. We’ve seen it used in this thread a handful of times already.

      Don’t make it this easy lol. Beta.

      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.

      Oh, when was that, when two people were honestly debating their views and policies? Was it Nixon? Reagan? Bush? other Bush? Which Republican was it?

      what bullshit

      Did you miss Biden literally laying out his pro working class domestic agenda? He gave a call to action for voters that improvements for labor. Given, he totally flubbed talking about the Georgia murder and Israel/Palestine, but if you think both parties are the same in domestic policy, then you’re the one not paying attention.

      Tell me you didn’t actually experience 2016-2021 (where that’s all that little wannabe dictator did lmao), and definitely did not watch the SoTU, without telling me.
