IMPORTANT State of the Union

Really good section on China.

 

He’s doing better than I expected, but it’s getting difficult to listen to.

Shouting occasionally to emphasize can be effective when used sparingly. Shouting constantly for approaching an hour and a half kind of drags - you’ve gotta have some variety in your speech patterns.

 

I see Hunters crack came in handy for Joe.

 

that your way of saying his nickname of sleepy Joe is inaccurate?

 

Probably got advice he’s too soft spoken. I think he was mostly balanced but I do get your point.

 

Agree. Needs more modulation.

 

He's no Obama for sure. Obama had a oratorical gift

 

Watching the biggest cartoon character on the stage spin his yarns. So many lies.....

 

I think he is gonna make america great again

 

I see a future… I see a future… Good ending.

That was a speech for half of America.

 

I think he did great!

 

Give till it hurts
Donate to Support Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and Democrats Nationwide

 

A lot was to show he’s still in the game. He should have ran in place for 5 seconds and say “let’s see the other guy do that”.

 

Sorry I couldn’t find my Joe Biden to English dictionary what did he say

 

Wasn’t talking to you.

 

Thats the problem.

 

Will be interested to read the print out of that speech - my impression from listening is that much of it came across far, far more like a campaign speech than a State of the Union address.

I don’t think he hit the typical buzzwords of “Mister Speaker, the state of the union is strong,” and there was a whole, whole lot more talking directly about Trump, what former presidents have done, and directly trying to cast himself as being argumentative with Republicans than I recall from any SOTU. The “four more years” chant obviously didn’t help it seem any less like a stump speech.

 

Not really. He knows there is no open to listen.

 

I missed the “union is strong” piece but maybe it isn’t that strong?

It was a very campaign speech feeling. Not a typical unity SOTU.

 

Yep, he didn't say that - intentional? Also, did not end with the traditional "And God bless the United States of America"
It was "And God protect our troops"
