    1. @Tara Reade Oh ? Biden sounds pretty coherent compared to that sorry excuse of a human being on the other channel. what’s more, Biden laid out policies whereas trump just keep on congratulating himself over perceived self glory !

  1. He’s a good person. He has empathy, compassion, and intelligence. Something we’ve been lacking. I vote Joe and Kamala.

    1. Intelligence lmao 😂🤣🤣 He may get lucky and win the senate race though 🤭 “Never underestimate joe’s ability to fvk things up” – Obama’s quote

  2. Joe Biden has Americas most prolific liar on the ropes… Joe Biden is fighting the good fight… Please Vote

    1. @J N If you have proof, out with it… Sounds like you were duped… Friends do not mislead friends, and friends do not let others be misled… Sounds like you need a real friend… Thanks

    2. @The Alpengeist You complete wingnuts can only talk about “Hunter” in the midst of a pandemic, an economic crisis, the worst wildfires in American history, etc. And to top it off, Hunter looks great by comparison with Eric and Don the Con Jr.!

    3. @Allan Burns – Nobody really cares about whatever clown antics Hunter Biden has done, they are just funny facts. The BIG bombshell will be the release of what was on Hunter Biden’s laptop that was sent to the FBI and the copy of that hard drive that is in the possession of Rudy Giuliani, information about what Dementia Joe did while Vice President of the USA. Fasten your seatbelts, it’s going to be an interesting ride!

  3. Joe Biden is a good person before being anything else. He made us feel safe for 8 yrs as VP and he will keep us safe as POTUS. Dump Trump & save America.

    1. @Chris Martin At least Biden speaks in coherent sentences. Besides Trump is a repugnant human being leading a deplorable segment of the American population. That you would support a man who decides whether to help a state based on how its citizens voted in an election is shocking. The people of California need a federal disaster proclamation to rebuild their communities. You pledge fealty to the man who has rejected their request. Government, American presidents are supposed to serve all of his countrymen. But, people like you allow him to act this way. It’s acceptable to you. That makes you a danger to the American Republic, to our Union. For those reasons, and others, I hate you.

    2. @Chris Martin “I’ve known Jeff [Epstein] for 15 years. Terrific guy! He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side.”—Donald J. Trump

  4. Years ago there were 7 democrats running. My 3 favorites were Gore, Clinton and Biden and I m still happy with these choices!

  5. There is a new disinfectant called VOTE. It is specifically designed to remove contagious and deadly ORANGE viruses…It is most effective if used by November 3, 2020..

  6. Ignore the polls and trolls!
    Vote too big to rig!
    Vote country over party!
    Vote too save democracy in America!
    🇺🇸Biden/Harris 2020

    1. Oh- wow- when you said that about how Biden- makes us feel- it is so TRUE— PLEASE Vote Blue!!!1 Biden-Harris 2020

  7. I’m learning not to be so critical of Joe Biden in terms of the way he delivers sometimes (not saying I still won’t hold account of his words) but I’m starting to understand his stutters and jumbled words are not at all an indication of a decline. In his mind and heart his vision is clear, his intelligence is sharp, above all else his empathy is genuine.Which is what this country needs. He’s under immense pressure to get this right. I can understand if his inner child that stuttered comes through from time to time. I also understand some people are just doers more than speakers. Some of his responses may have been long winded. But there were FACTS. And that’s undeniable.

    1. He’s like that one uncle you avoid sometimes because he always wants to have a meaningful conversation with you…but you never have a reason to doubt his intentions are good.

    2. Biden stutters sometimes because he HAS A GODDAM STUTTER. It’s a physiological problem that does not go away. He has learned how to manage it and he still has to do that even now.

    3. @Karen Byrd I know that KAREN. It still can place some doubt considering his age and the media constantly questioning his fit for office. I’m saying I had to look past all of that and remind myself of his condition and hold some humility.

  8. This is all good, but a huge BLUE landslide is needed for him to be able to do what Americans need right now and in the future.
    So !! Get out there and VOTE for Joe folks, that’s the only ways it’s going to happen.
