Our President Elect is speaking live

Contrast that with Trump yesterday.

Thank god. We have a chance.

[jon-nyc]

He pivoted from candidate Biden to President Elect Biden.

[jon-nyc]

It's Morning in America.

Thank you, Jesus.

[Doctor Phibes]

Is that Jesus, Jesus, or Mexican hey-soos Jesus?

[jon-nyc]

Yes! Peace Be Upon Him.

[Doctor Phibes]

Pees be upon him.

Oh sorry, that was the last guy.

[Jolly]

He's not the President-elect. Trump has not conceded and the election has not been certified.

He may yet be President. Don't know how he is going to govern from his basement. And if he tries to do otherwise, COVID is not kind to the elderly...

[jon-nyc]

Yeah whatever. He won and everyone knows it, including every flunky filing shit lawsuits on Trump's behalf.

[Larry]

Let's see how happy you are 2 years from now.

Hell, let's see how happy the country is two years from now.

Politics is a "what have you done for me lately" business. Joe is coming in under a cloud of election fraud. There will be no honeymoon. In 2022, he may well lose the House. And I think more Dem senators are defending seats than Republicans.

[Larry]

They're going to get what they deserve. I for one can't wait to watch it happen.

[Jolly]

Oh, I hope Joe is met with the same deference, care and courtesy shown Donald Trump upon his inauguration.

[Larry]

This country deserves Biden, and what's coming with him.

[jon-nyc]

Indeed we do, after what Trump put us through.

[Horace]

Trump put us through, you put us through, whatever. It's all the same.

[jon-nyc]

I had help.

Wonder if Joe is going to increase income in real dollars for working class Americans?

What definition of "working class Americans" do you have in mind?

It's commendable that you want to commit to a quantitative measure to gauge the success of the Biden administration. Just define it concretely so you do not succumb to fudging the definitions to get the results you want later.

Would "median US household income" work for you, or do you prefer "median US personal income"?
Or perhaps average income for the "middle quintile" rather than the "median"?
Maybe you want to limit the "income" to "earned income" only to more closely reflect "working class"?

What Trump put us through was the best economy in history, highest employment rates for blacks, latinos, and women in history, put the middle east on a path to peace, destroyed ISIS, which was created by Obama, fixed the NAFTA mess your party made, exposed China and all that goes along with that, put more money in the average working man's picket, etc. Everything Trump put us through was a positive.

What YOUR side put us through is a disgrace. Don't even TRY to hang that around Trumps neck.

Larry, I always get the image of you as a blinkered horse, or mythical head-in-sand ostrich
