Joe Biden is very skilled at taking selfie pictures

At the first fund raiser where I met Joe Biden, he first autographed three floor signs from the 2016 national convention while I was waiting in line (Joe recognized these floor speech signs as the ones used during his speech at the National Convention) and then when it was my turn, he took my iphone and did two great selfies faster than I could.

These pictures taken today made me smile





It was latter that I saw that Joe has inscribed "Keep the Faith" on one of the floor speech signs.

Joe is an amazing person who cares about people

Unlike TDFG wearing his red USA hat and POTUS jacket looking stiff and unsmiling.

I will post no picture as one can imagine such a scene.

He is in his element when he is outside the White House and among typical Americans. It's a bonus when he's around the troops because he enjoys spending time with them as much as they do, unlike the last guy who never commingled with the troops apart from giving empty and lie-filled speeches to them. He certainly never joined them for a meal paid for by the White House. As a bonus, it probably pisses off the right wing traitors in this country when they see so much mutual admiration between Biden and the armed forces.

I still remember Joe discussing foreign leaders at the second fundraiser and discussing an event where he met some foreign leaders. I still remember Joe telling the audience that if TFG won a second term, NATO was dead and Putin would be free to take over Europe. I have watched and have been pleased at how Joe has rebuilt NATO

Some people think covid helped Biden win but I have the opposite view.

Without covid we would have had more campaign events which would have helped us.
