The President Biden Thread: All Things President Joe

Btw, I voted by mail 2 weeks ago.  Since a check I sent across the country the same day was cashed a week ago, I figure Trump didn’t sabotage the U.S. Post Office sufficiently to stop my ballot from arriving in time to be +1 for Biden.

But aren't you going to wait until after the debate?   Something might be said to change your mind.

States across the country are setting records for early voting Jules.  There’s a reason for that.  It’s an emergency.  I voted as soon as I could to make sure my vote counted.  Many are so concerned about their mail in ballot being rejected for a trivial technicality, they are voting in person early.  I lay awake at night thinking to myself, did I do everything right, did I sign everything, did I make sure I filled in that Biden/Harris oval in a way to be sure to be counted?

Am I sure Jules?  Yes, I’m sure I chose the right candidate for President of the United States.  The debate tomorrow night will be another fiasco, but that won’t be Biden’s fault.

I know, goof.  I was joking.  .  My sarcasm didn't reflect there

I figured Jules.  I was preaching to the choir.  But since I sit every day in my own house barely interacting with any human beings, I still feel the need to proselytize.  Who knows, perhaps I can get joan, eater and gunnerman to come into the light of reason and reject the Trumpism insanity that has become the Republican Party.

I voted two weeks ago by mail.  In the case of Trump, there is nothing that could be revealed about Biden that would stop me voting against Trump.

i waited to hear all the evidence first...i'd never want to convict the wrong guy for crimes the other guy actually did

Since I voted for Neil Boortz this only matters if you are thinking of voting for Biden.  What is detailed in this interview will make Joe kowtow to the left and have him always looking over his shoulder.

Don't believe stuff you hear on Fox News.  They live in an alteranative reality.  Biden will be a centrist President.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrat Joe Biden defeated President Donald Trump to become the 46th president of the United States on Saturday, positioning himself to lead a nation gripped by historic pandemic and a confluence of economic and social turmoil.

His victory came after more than three days of uncertainty as election officials sorted through a surge of mail-in votes that delayed the processing of some ballots. Biden crossed 270 Electoral College votes with a win in Pennsylvania.

Exactly.

And this thread title now needs to be changed to: "Joe Biden Is President, 2020."

[_priapism]

It’s been changed in keeping with our traditional threads for individual politicians. So welcome to “The Biden thread: All things Joe.”

A White House returning to normal is one where the President has a pet that isn’t William Barr or Lindsey Graham.

Major.  He is such a beautiful dog, and will be the first rescue to live in the White House.

There’s 2!  I knew this was my president.

I voted against Trump, not for Biden. As a former Republican, it was hard, but Trump needed to be stopped before he did any more damage.

Last night I watched as our President-elect addressed the nation.
Holy Crap! I was impressed... this from a jaded old man who's seen several President's come and go. I'm much more optimistic for this country under the leadership of President Biden. He made it clear he's already at work to take charge of the tasks ahead of him.

As to our Vice President-elect, I'm also impressed. I watched almost no campaign coverage. Last night was the first I'd seen of her. Joe made a great choice and I feel he will work her harder than any other Veep.

Sadly, Trumpism is still alive. I hope that will dwindle as the country sees what a sane person in the White House can achieve.

I agree with everything you have said - it's almost as if I wrote the script myself.
 Not being a "Yank" I speak with limited authority but have followed the recent events closely in that they will have an impact on  many other countries in the world. In Aust. I am a long term Liberal Party voter, so what you said resonates with what my experiences were.

As President Elect Biden prepares his transition team, he's appointed a former lobbyist  that helped a big corporation work around EPA regulations  so they could pollute.  This has generated a great deal of correspondence objecting to this man's involvement.  Hopefully President Biden will listen.
