    To sum up:

    People who like Biden liked it

    People who don't, didn't

    I've never watched a SOTU speech in my entire life.

    I was only joking

        Tantamount to an attempt on the president's life, which is an insurrection. And I do NOT use that word lightly.

        Education is extremely important.

          There was a teachable moment where Biden compared America unfavorably to a bunch of other countries, including Russia.

            Yeah, but Biden got his revenge. After all that coughing into his hand, he exited while shaking hands.

                      Didn’t you get the memo?

                      The current Codger and Chief will be doing just that for the next 8 months or so. He’s going against the self proclaimed American Moses, His Obesity, The Oracle of Orange.

                      The grudge match of the century has been set.
