    That is what yall get for asking him to answer questions. Just let Psaki do it. But to his credit he hung in there. Surprised so many repeated questions and none on crime or immigration.

    Only way to release and tweet (and then post here) a statement so incredibly stupid and false would be to have not watched it at all.

    Yes no other Presidency had released propaganda touting their achievements. I mean the last one was so known for their humility..

    Brandon is the greatest spokesman for the GOP. In a span of a year, there’s a 14 point swing from voters voting for the Jackass Party to voting for the GOP. Brandon completely lost his support from Independent and Hispanic....especially the Hispanics. Even the Donkey voters are tired of him, he went from the high 90s to the low 80s.

    You losers in here are still so delusional, using the Orange man as a whipping boy ain’t gonna solve your adult diapers wearing fake ass president’s problems. November is right around the corner and we get to do it all over again in November 2024.

    This is what happened to thieves that stole elections. Karma is a bietch, don’t you think?
    Let’s Go Brandon!

    You are the epitome of delusional if you believe Trump's BS that the election was stolen. SMH

    I think it's that impeached clown that wears the diapers by the way. He has no control over what comes out either end at this point.

    I'm sure Trump's celebrity supporters would represent our country way better:

    sounds like Biden must have suggested that ALL elections are the big lie. Can anyone confirm or deny this?? Kamala struggles here with her answer

    No

    The Republicans are soiling themselves around any attempt to say that a Democrat is questioning the legitimacy of American elections. It's a stupid Whataboutism attempt that doesn't work.

    Saying something along the lines of what Biden said that if states enact certain measures it would mess with the sanctity of elections (Georgia's new law that partisan State House members can overrule election officials being one example) yes it would make people question our election integrity isn't exactly controversial.

    However the Republicans are taking anything they get to create a whataboutism talking point for their ignorant FoxNews viewers so if at a weekend BBQ one of their Democrat friends brings up how Trump literally tried to overthrow an election, they will then say "well I heard that Biden himself questioned the integrity of our elections." and then the Democrat friend just moves on to talking about sports, and the FoxNews watcher moves on with his life feeling okay with the fact that he's continuing to vote for an autocratic anti-democratic movement in America.

    That sentence is so specious I almost want to read the op ed.

    How the hell could that speech piss off everybody else except progressives.

    I do enjoy how the narrative for so long was that Biden was old, sleepy and just stayed in the basement and then he gives a forceful speech and holds a very long press conference it is that he is too angry and divisive.
    Also that he is trying to do to much..

    I agree with this but he was elected because he campaigned on a return to normalcy, his turn to being a transformative president surprised me and I don't think did him any favors.

    I think his approval rate would be much higher if he had not promised so much in the 1st 3 months and created so many expectations.

    I am on the fence with this, I wanted things to just get back to normal, but I very impressed he has gotten so much done, but I am afraid of overreach at this point and having a backlash in 20/24.

    I think things will settle down going into next fall and through 20/24 inflation wise and supply wise, and he will start reaping the benefits.

    I could be totally wrong and **** keeps happening.

    Returning to normal as in the normal that convinced a large percentage of the population that they needed a "bull in a china shop" president? Our economic trends of the past half century says "normal" isn't going to cut it.

    I know you have qualms with progressives and the right. But understand this, if these economic trends continue, expect those two sides to move further towards the extremes. Extremism is a reaction. Extremism doesn't magically come from no where.

    And this is what many progressives feared with a Biden presidency. The suburban middle class will feel relieved that "normal" is back when "normal" in reality hasn't worked for over half the population over the decades from manufacturing jobs being shipped overseas to increased wealth inequality and cost of living. People will naturally drift towards the extremes when these systemic issues are left run amuck where the establishment believes the "status quo" before Trump was acceptable. We got Trump because the status quo was not sustainable.

    I too think he won because most people were just sick of the chaos and while many of his proposals are popular most Americans weren't really thinking about those but just how quickly we could move on past the previous four years. It wouldn't surprise me if Mitt Romney actually voted for Biden just because he was so sick of the chaos.

    Biden still had to get through the Democratic primaries and just "not being Trump" I don't think was going to do that. In addition he had to try to get a Democratic Senate in place too or his Presidency would truly be ineffectual. To address those I think he had to adopt more transformational outlook.

    This is very speculative but I also think where Biden is in life that he is thinking far less about reelection, I'm still not sure he'll run again. I think he really feels this is about history and he'll never get a chance like this again. I think he's considering whether history will just say he was like Ford trying to pick up the pieces of a fractured nation or whether it will say he was like FDR.

    I can understand the logic.

    King's death was not known by as many people around the world like Floyd and people around the world did not see King actually being killed.

    Now I don't think it will have the same historical impact but as a recent event I agree.

    Crime is and always will be a economic issue. So tackle wealth inequality issues first, and the crime part solves itself later. We aren't going to solve crime with more prosecution and policing. Remember, we hold 4% of the world's population and 24% of the world's prison population. So obviously a lack of policing and criminal justice isn't the issue here.

    Immigration? You notice all the labor shortages? Unless you really care about maintaining a certain ethnic makeup for this country, then we need MORE immigration.
