President Biden, asked about his previous plans to be a 'bridge' president:
"What changed was the gravity of the situation I inherited, in terms of the economy, our foreign policy, and domestic division."
"Most presidential historians give me credit for having accomplished more than most any president since Johnson, and maybe before that, to get major pieces of legislation passed. And what I realized was my long time in the Senate had equipped me to have the wisdom on how to deal with the Congress, to get them, we got more major legislation passed. No one thought would happen. And I want to finish it, to get that finished."
This is a wide ranging press conference where Biden is showing a mastery of multiple facets of foreign policy.
Compare this to literally any of Donald Trump’s speeches. There’s no comparison.
Give me the old guy with the stutter.
I am so effin' sick of professed progressives spending every moment tossing out the same nonsense about Biden that MAGAs and the media are.
Just what are you contributing to actually protect the stuff you say you believe in?
Get your damn heads together and show some courage.
President Biden explains his thinking on saying he'd be a bridge to then running again, arguing it has to do with the state of democracy, saying, "I've gotta finish this job. I've gotta finish this job. Because there's so much at stake."
Biden: I think Trump said in one of his rallies, don't hold me to this, I just learned about Nato or something to that effect. Foreign policy is never his strong point. And, he seems to have an affinity to people who are authoritarian
By calling for his withdrawal Democrats did more damage to the president than he did to himself
Media decided an aging & inarticulate Biden deserved vastly more attention than a dishonest Trump who is dangerously detached from reality

BREAKING: President Biden just clearly demonstrated he is more than capable of handling America’s most complex problems. This is something Donald Trump has repeatedly failed to accomplish.
Your daily reminder:
Jim Mattis served America with honor and distinction for 40 years.
@realDonaldTrump was a draft-dodging chickenshit who hides in a bunker and returns fire via Twitter.
