At the end of his show Brian showed a video from a funeral of a security officer in Florida who died trying to disarm the shooter at MSD High School. The son of the victim ran up to Joe and started hugging him. Joe kissed him on the head and asked if he was ok. The child shook his head no, no, no. Joe just held him and told him it was gonna be ok. I couldn't imagine Trump doing that in a million years.
My gawd. When I see the contrast between a real caring human being like Joe Biden, and unfeeling animal Donald Trump it makes me even more angry anyone would vote for Trump for any evil sickening reason.
Stop it media.

(5,131 posts)You don't see trump hugging his own kids, let alone trying to comfort someone else's. I mourn for what we have lost as a nation. A president that can comfort us in our time of sorrow. Just think, trump should have been the comforter in chief in that moment. This happened in 2018. Here is VP Biden. But no trump.

Joe isn't afraid to show love.

(10,885 posts)We are so in need of Joe's brand of compassion and humanity.
Have to give tRump his due, however. Remember this? OUR HERO! He would have gone in to that school unarmed!
On second thought, WARNING: Only watch this video if you can handle an instant comedown from Joe's warmth and caring. You won't find any of that here.

Joe doesn't have to be everything. That is the idea behind a functioning government - it is not a monarchy, a dictatorship, or any kind of "one man/woman show." Like Hillary Clinton wrote, "It Takes a Village," and it takes us all working together for this democratic republic to function.
