...and I'll bet very very few of Donald Trump's acquaintances or family has ever said that about Donald.

And millions of Americans actually LIKE Trump's lying and assholiness.

It will be interesting.

and he turned it into a desire to make the world better. He is a fallible human and wasn’t always right (no human is) but I never doubted his love of country and his commitment to service and in a world selfishness, he was the highest example of duty and honor.

Stark about the dangers, poetic about America.
Now we have to be the Keepers of the Flame (statue of Liberty).
Deeply intelligent and very moving.
Thank you, President Biden.

Not ONLY the Military Industrial Complex, he basically warned us against the Elite (wealthy) and Scientists/Technological influences.

Here is the entire speech (with the text) Definitely worth a listen. I had never heard the whole thing (I was not born until a few months later and wasn't paying attention to politics at the time.)

after Biden's speech, I immediately switched to FOX news...................

It is always quite an eye opener..............Non Stop, high speed comments, continuously degrading Biden as a person, and telling their audience that everything Biden was saying he accomplished was a flagrant lie, or things Trump accomplished that crooked Joe is trying to take credit for.......

Not hard at all to see what Psychiatrists have told us about Fox News, RW Radio, and Trump.....that if a person watches/listens to only Fox News and RW Radio, it very effectively causes true "brainwashing"............
