Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: Joe, acting like a president. 😍 [View all]friend of m and j
(220 posts)of whether to run for President of the United States of America. What we saw tonight in that speech was the real Joe Biden. A man of the people, down to earth, A man who truly loves his country and honest,, with a great deal of integrity. compassion and and he can beat Donald Trump. What you see is what you get.
Therein lies the big problem. The speech did make me proud of him. But it didn't bring tears to my eyes. I brought fear in my heart. Trump and Putin saw that also. What was running through my mind was that anyone who saw that speech could not believe that the majority of the American people could believe that Joe could not beat Trump in the General Election .
Trump and Putin will stop at nothing, absolutely nothing to stop Biden. Trump believes he can beat any of the other candidates (and he probably can). So the target on Joes back just got a lot bigger. I wanted to scram at Joe to get all the Secret Service contingents he can get. And that may not be enough. Maybe hire additional security teams to protect him from himself. If he saw a weeping grandmotherly type sitting in front of the podium at a gathering, what would he do as soon as he finished his speech? He would want to be who is is and get off the stage to calm and console her. But she could be a Putin agent covered in the Corono Virus. They have to find a way to keep Joe from being Joe in a situation like that.
Scar;y stuff.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
