Call me Captain Obvious but I thought it was very presidential.
I was surprised. It was an important speech that I think I will remember more than any state of the union so far. The dude is a legit president, not a conman taking advantage of the position for his benefit.
Still very old but COViD didn’t put him down … and he is still giving his heart and soul to the nation ❤️
Dude’s been in the game for like 50 years. He’s one tough old summabitch.
I thought that he seemed surprisingly lucid, with it, put together. The overall content was gracious and grateful and praising of the country.
That said, I’m terrified about the future of the United States.
Here’s a link to the transcript. Just read it and thought it was very, very good. I’ll try to watch the video tomorrow. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/24/us/politics/biden-speech-transcript.html
Can’t access that link. It’s paywalled.
I think this is the same speech published on the whitehouse page?

Or a mysterious fourth option?
