I believe Joe means this honestly and sincerely

[True Dough]

Never an utterance of "suckers and losers" here!

President Biden
@POTUS

During this season of reflection, I'm filled with gratitude for the service members and veterans I’ve met along the way – here at the White House and across America.

It's been the honor of my life to lead you, serve you, care for you, and defend you.

1. Though I'm certain that it is not his intent...

... Joe's basic human decency also serves as a glaring contrast to the ingrained malice that defines conservatism.

[oldmanlynn]

3. Seems like our country likes ingrained malice and violence these days nfm

[GiqueCee]

8. It appears to me...

... that the weak minds that are drawn to conservatism cannot cope with abstractions, like "other people", or issues without physical substance, or complexities beyond their limited intellectual capabilities. Their inchoate resentments need a target, so they fling poo at anything they can't – or won't – try to understand. And any factual information that doesn't conform to their narrow world view is "Fake News". Most of them are beyond hope or redemption. In effect, write-offs.
I have no sympathy for them, only contempt.

[et tu]

11. not the whole country

actually less then half-
joe is an extraordinary person and president,
one for the ages.

[japple]

12. That's all that gets shown on TV news or printed in newspaper.

They hardly ever run anything uplifting.

[iluvtennis]

2. President Biden is a good human being. I 💕 him. n/t

[PatSeg]

4. Joe brings me to tears so often

Such a truly decent and honorable man.

[chouchou]

5. Joe never has "To fake it" ..Doesn't have to be coached to "say the right thing".

His kindness is built-in.

[Biophilic]

6. Joe continues to be a shining example of a decent human being.

[usonian]

7. In our rage-loving media times, no good deed goes unpunished.

Here's to the decent people, in America and the world at large.

Peace


Calm seas


And faithful friends.

[Wounded Bear]

9. Strange how our country reacts to decency...

Jimmy Carter followed by Reagan, who at least had the facade of being a 'genial old gentleman' covering his basic meanness.

Barack Obama and Joe Biden followed by trump, who has no redeeming qualities.

[Arthur_Frain]

10. I know a vet who relates a story

Of having difficulty getting some of his benefits, until he wrote Joe. Joe called him personally and the difficulties were solved within a week or two.

I think Joe is the real thing. He’s made some mistakes, but who of us hasn’t? I think especially at this point in his life he’s just looking to see how much difference there is that he can make for the people who need him, that’s a product of wisdom.

It’s a shame he didn’t get four more years to do that, it would have been hell to watch him age in his next term, but I can’t help feeling like after all this, he got shivved by his own people, but he’s still out there doing his job.

I’ll tell you this much, we barely deserve Joe, and the maggots sure as hell don’t. I hope our next person with the power to make some good trouble has more of an axe to grind.

[TBF]

13. Joe's a good guy - that's why we all voted for him.

No one is perfect, but he did a steady and admiral job leading us out of pandemic. I hope he is able to fully enjoy his retirement.

Hard to believe folks decided Trump was the next step, but the sexism is STRONG in this country.

[Rebl2]

14. Do you

think he will speak to the nation before he leaves office? If he does, do you think msm will show it?
Am I misremembering, but didn’t President Obama speak to the nation before he left office?

[4catsmom]

15. A Gentleman

they don't make them like this anymore

[Bluethroughu]

16. This President enhanced VA benefits while Elunatic/ trump

Plan to take them away.

Vets better pull their heads out of their butts and start paying attention to the enemy within. They took an oath to the Constitution and their military leaders laid it out for them before the election, but the majority voted for an insurrectionist!

You can not make this stuff up.

[JustAnotherGen]

18. And those currently serving

Friends son is a 32 year old Army Ranger - he voted for Trump.

She's ashamed of him.

[Bluethroughu]

19. He needs to get a grip, and re-read the Constiution.

[JustAnotherGen]

25. Its too late for that

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

27. He can't read.

Or least read at the grade level necessary to understand the Constitution. Also, to say "re-read" implies he read it once. Nobody knows more about the Constitution than he does, you know.

[soldierant]

26. "Vote Vets" has never

had their collective heads in their collective butt. Very savvy folks, even the generals (and I say that as a vet myself.)

Too bad MAGAts don't listen to them.

[JustAnotherGen]

17. Biden is the best

Just love him. How lucky that I got to be on the earth as the same time as him, Obama, HRC, Bill, Gore, Carter, Harris and Mondale.

I fear that at 51 - I will never again get to see a good soul leading America.

[BlueSky3]

21. I love the expression of

the woman standing beside the veteran. Such grace.

[3catwoman3]

22. He absolutely means it. Joe Biden is decent to his core.

I am beyond bereft that his time in office is coming to an end. He has worked his ass off for us, and if anyone ever deserved a second term, it is Joe Biden.

[Tweedy]

23. Joe Biden rocks

He is unequivocally one of the best presidents we have seen.

A man who never bought even a share of stock so as not to tempt himself to corruption.

Shame on our fourth estate for treating this wonderful man and excellent president so terribly. Shame!

[no_hypocrisy]

28. I'm still aghast that Trump & Co. managed to take a fine and decent

man like Joe Biden and consistently defame him -- and a huge chunk of the American population believed the lies.

Guess I know now how Jesus got crucified.
