Biden's actions during Antia Hill's inquisition is what bothers me most.

I’m relieved there’s *at least one* more person paying attention to this, even if I’m not sure how many more there would need to be in order to make an impact

Why, yes. It has always been my dream to see two geriatric White guys yelling "YOU'RE THE GROPER!" "NO, YOU'RE THE GROPER!" across the presidntial debate stage.

Yeah I just don’t think there will be any actual legislative will to to do it unless the public demands it.

Remember the 10% middle class tax cuts drumpf promised were in the works "right after the mid-Terms?" The mid-terms over yet? Haven't seen my 10% middle class tax cut until maybe right after the repugs do the healthcare reform after the preznit elections maybe.

Well gee, if there wasn't a bunch of reasons to blame Poles for anti-Semitism maybe you'd have a chance here. And why are you protesting in the U.S.? You bozos escaped. Stop whining.

Never mind -- I know now you meant this choad; the one calling Puerto Rico a "foreign country" to gin up their idiotic, racist, always angry, rage-frothing TRE45ON supporters

London. " It was a nice walk from the tube to work this morning. The fog lifts early this time of year, so Londoneers are walking in sunshine. Not that it changes anyone's dour and dreadful mood. Just less umbrellas. Otherwise, a typical and usual day. The lorries chug by carrying whatever lorries carry to wherever lorries go. Cabbies bustle and vie for position.

Walking down the street, the coffee vendors are doing well and so are the ladies selling flowers.The newsstand has a brisk business as well, which is puzzling to me. I notice the headlines are very much the same today, as they have been for several months. Perhaps this is some sort of fraud that I should report ? Essentially, they all say the same thing, with various tones of sarcasm, pity, condescension, hate and glee. "Parliament Votes On Brexit" I feel a pang of patriotism, Queen and Country and such, that I should be an informed citizen. But I really don't have an extra 2 Quid to spend on tomorrow's fish wrap. Later, I will need chips and even later, a pint. And the news is the same every day!I notice a bit of humour from one paper: ' Westminster Energizer Bunnies Keep Voting, And Voting, And Voting.....'Here I thought their job was to vote. I simply don't know. BTW, did you see that ludicrous display last night ?Well, Here we are, another day at Reynholm Industries."

The demographics of our national political discussions can be explained thusly: Smart people talk amongst themselves about ideas. Average people discuss things, and dullards talk shit about the other people.

Biden's supporters maintain these events are being taken out of context, likening him to an emotional grandpa who's plays old-school grip'n grin politics in the #MeToo era.I can understand why people would misconstrue Biden's jovial outreach. Listen, gold-diggers... just because Joe gently places his supple fingers on your bottom in a gesture of collegial support, don't make it mean something that it's not.
