The #1 thing I was looking for is Biden's face when someone is talking to him.
During the debate and the interview with Stephanopoulos, he had this vacant, slack jawed look like he didn't know where he was or what was going on.
So far, he has completely avoided that. He looks active and engaged.
Not a great sign that this praise sounds like the doctor's notes from my toddler's last check-up.
It's just so fucking surreal that people keep trying to say this is ok...
It's also fucking surreal that so many people think they know everything.
Yep. Like when Biden ordered every federal agency back to the office
For pretty much no reason. He just thought he knew better than every agency head and apparently this was what he wanted to actually put effort behind.
It's weird, one of the few things he really did on his own, and it never gets brought up
Ah so Biden did something stupid, that means others get a pass to also assume their knowledge is comprehensive without evidence. Perfect argument.
