"Full ahead." - Captain Joe (D)

"...In the face of sustained and alarming challenges to democracy, and universal human rights, all around the world, democracy needs champions."

You're the U.S.A.'s Democracy Champion, Joe. While those poor souls with weak knees and snowflake hearts melt like cheap chocolate from a predictable blast of republican fascist bullshit and felonious lies, honest Americans remain steadfast. We know who you are. We are with you. That's all there is to say."

"Aye, aye, Captain Joe. Full ahead." - Non-Sucker, Non-Loser Americans

He said something like “yeah, Joe we know Joe, he gets his words tangled up sometimes, but we know his heart is in the right place“. That said it all to me.

It looked like stark white lighting and definitely made Biden look super pale. It may not have affected Trump as much because he typically has pounds of heavy makeup on.

This debate crap is overblown, I mean Biden has a one bad debate and oh my throw him out. diaper don has screw ups every day and no one cares. The Democratic party needs to grow some balls and get Biden charged up on the next debate and just be on the offense. All Biden should do is hammer him on his sexual abuse and convicted felon charges and all the upcoming charges. It might be his last debate ever and he might as well go out swinging.

President Biden in a staff-wide call: “I am running. I am the leader of the Democratic Party. No one is pushing me out. I’ve been knocked down before and counted out my whole life. When you get knocked down you get back up.”

For example, All the treasonous Suckers and Losers conned by the G.O.P. and its russia-loving, evil empire, draft dodging felon rapist liar. They ain't getting to the promised land, no matter how much GOP bullshit they have willfully swallowed over the course of their lifetimes.
