State of the Union - Wagers?
-
Biden still needs 500 more delegates to win the nomination. Once he secures those 500 delegates, he can easily name his successor to the nomination. Preferably at the convention, but even in March/April it’s doable. If something happens before then, say Biden having a mental breakdown during an hour long nationally televised speech to Congress and the Nation, then all bets are off.
So what do you think? Does Biden pull it off? Or do Dems go into panic mode on Friday?
I haven’t watched a SOTU by Biden, but I will watch tomorrow..

What happened to the rumor that he would just mail it in, like Thomas Jefferson? Any chance of that happening?

Turns out that after Jefferson, everyone mailed it in until 1913.
President Thomas Jefferson abandoned that practice (in-person) in 1801, in favor of a written message.
It took more than 100 years for a president to again deliver their message in the form of a speech before Congress. President Woodrow Wilson revived the speech, still known as the Annual Message, in 1913.
Presidents swung between personal appearances and written messages until they mostly began adhering to the in-person tradition after President Franklin D. Roosevelt did so in 1934.

Trump says he’s going to do a ‘Play by Play’ of State of the Union
“I am pleased to inform you that tomorrow night we will be doing a LIVE, Play by Play, of Crooked Joe Biden’s State of the Union Address,” Trump said in a Truth Social post on Wednesday, not clarifying as to what platform the “Play by Play” would happen on.
“I will correct, in rapid response, any and all inaccurate Statements, especially pertaining to the Border and his Weaponization of the [Department of Justice], FBI, [attorney generals], and District Attorneys, to go after his Political Opponent, ME (something never done before in this Country!),” Trump continued. “We did this once before to tremendous success – Beating All Records. It is important for the Country to get the TRUTH!”

It’s not going to really start until 9:20-9:30. Forget it. This is too late for me.
