When all Americans see him in real time, all the Hannity, Carlson, RW radio bullshit melts into the black hole they all come out of.

Mar 2021

“Are you worried...”
“Do you think you moved too fast on EC’s ...”
“To be clear, when can journalists get into the border to find problems”,
“Is there anything else you can do ...”
“Are you running for re-election”
“Have you moved far left like McConnell says you have”
“I’d like to follow up,”
“I’d like to circle around to”,
“Do you agree with Jim Clyburn on the filibuster as Jim Crow”
“Are you moving closer to removing the filibuster”
“Are you saying yes to moving ahead on campaigning”
“Will you run against Pres [sic] Trump”
“Are you more likely to maintain tariffs on China, or cut off China to international payment systems"
"Will you fix this particular border problem of..."
"Are you going to _______________ "


Joe's making a LOT of news today about the bipartisanship shown by Republican voters, the filibuster, immigration, China, alliances of democracies, science and biotech research investment, communications with heads of state on fair competition in trade and treatment of their people, infrastructure jobs in the future of rebuilding schools, plumbing, stopping pollution, fossil damage, air & road travel that take into account future climate mitigation, what's at stake for the future -- autocracy or democracy.

Answering questions with thoughtful agility, using words understandable by everyday people, exuding leadership that had been lacking these last 4 years.

No drama with Joe. He speaks plainly, from the heart, and he is speaking to the American people on their level, regardless of party membership.

By our President.
Not so much by reporters.
RepubliQans and Kremlin underestimate him at their peril.
