    Joe Biden is old to be doing this- but Trump is only a couple years younger.

    Biden is good when he has rest and is prepared- even at his age, a lot of “ordinary” people like him when he is prepared. The problem becomes when he is worn down and has flown for days. Truthfully I think most 30 year old people would find it really taxing and mentally and physically hard.

    Credit to Biden - he didn’t just complain or blame like most modern politicians; he offered actual solutions or at least partial solutions. The $400 credit to new and outstanding homeowners is VERY smart politically. There are a lot of a-political or even moderate young people that will jump on that… housing costs are a HUGE issue that isn’t addressed enough in Washington.

    The Republican speech was weak - very amateurish. They should have gone another direction.

    I will admit- I could almost smell the incompetent grifters on both sides of the aisle. Put that many self serving pigs in one pen and the scent carries a long way.

    That Republican rebuttal is like I'm watching The Boyz with a similar level of acting and effort.

    Brandon proved it to us that we have the drugs that would make even a corpse coherent for a few hours. Tomorrow, he will fall as sleep again while slurring his words to whomever he’s talking to at the moment. What’s with all the screaming and coughing?

    This is hilarious. Since 2020 MAGA has been complaining about Sleepy Joe. Now they are upset because he had energy.

    I’ve been seeing a lot on the Right mocking Biden for pronouncing Laken Riley as “Lincoln Riley”

    Seriously? Was he so unnerved to say something to VP Harris that was the what he could come up with?

    Of course large marge and nehls would break not just decorum and good taste, but congressional rules... but hey, they entertained trump and their base which is much more important to both of their careers and egos. Curious why the maga ussc members didn't?

    I think katie britt is hawt. And the smartest senator from Alabama. but she did fib...but she is hawt. And having her speak from a kitchen sent a strong message.

    Whoever wrote this line from the speech should get a raise. Reminds me how Reagan used his age as a positive in a debate.

    What more do you expect from an old man who never matured after puberty? He's just a spoiled brat who lived off Daddy's money for years, and switched that to a grift off of the US government, corrupt foreign officials, white collar criminals aiding and abetting him, and dumb supporters buying his tacky souvenirs, hats, flags, etc...while sending him money to foot his bills. He wants to gut public education, yet his private schools couldn't teach him literacy beyond that of middle school kids. I'd put money on any student with average grades in any 6th grade class in any American public school beating him on any reading comprehension or literacy test, history test, or geography test.

    While most people are anxiously awaiting the SNL cold open with katie britt, this may help pass the time waiting...

    Perhaps the congressman hopes for a joe wilson career... the only time the nation will even see your name and face it will be for being a dick...
