The Biden Presidency

[One Night Only]

Just catching a bit of this speech on tv. Christ is it cringey, doesn't even sound sincere either. Just reeling off whatever the people want to hear. It's like he's farming for karma on Reddit.

I guess all these first speeches are like this? It's surreal, like I'm watching a comedy film

I missed trumps, bet his was feckin mental.

 

[BusbyMalone]

Oh yeah, Presidents CAN speak in coherent sentences

 

[Solius]

Good speech this.

 

[nimic]

I was going to call him up on this, but shortly after he did say that in tough times "enough of us did the right thing" to pull the rest through. An important caveat I think.

Yeah that's true. And this is the inauguration after all, I wasn't really expecting anything else.

 

[Beachryan]

Disagreement must not lead to dis-union is a pretty good line to be fair

 

[VorZakone]

I might be ageist, Biden just looks so old.

Apparently he's the oldest sworn in president. He's 78.

 

[Crackers]

Sounding like the great unifier. Here's hoping he can

 

[The Firestarter]

Say what you want about Biden, but he is a better orator than Trump

Ali G is a better orator than Trump.

 

[groovyalbert]

Great speech - act on it, but there is more than just a modicum of hope right now.

 

[ChaddyP]

I miss the trump thread already

 

[Deery]

It’s like having your grandad in presidency I like it..

 

[ha_rooney]

Clinton falling asleep?!

 

[Solius]

He hasn’t spoken about how good he is at things.

 

[Beachryan]

Given how they tried to convince people that he couldn't string two sentences together, this is pretty good. Yes, he looks his age, but he's still pretty good at this.

 

[adexkola]

Just wait for the transcript ye

Trumps own sounded like it was written by Bane from Dark Knight rises

[Precaution]

For someone who "gets" how he will pay for healthcare, really needs to sort that one out aye

 

[WI_Red]

"We must end this uncivil war" is a very good line

 

[Smores]

No, you are right. Has to be a one term deal.

Same age as Churchil's second term i think. Obviously Churchill had to stand down due to ill health eventually, wouldn't be surprised if the same thing happens.

Nicked it off G'n'R

 

[nimic]

He should get to the end soon, he's starting to miss on a few words here and there.

 

[AaronRedDevil]

Is sanders OK?

 

[Dudu]

Ends it with Moment of silence for the C19 victims.

E: Nevermind. Keeps going!

"AMERICA FIRST!"

 

[Deery]

I liked the ending..

Edit: oh he hasn’t stopped

 

[BusbyMalone]

Bernie looking like he'd rather be anywhere else but here.

Watch it. It was unlike any before it.

 

[Zlatan 7]

Good speech. Seems positive and he’s trying to pull people together, hopefully things calm down and go smoothly.

what a contrast to the last big headed bumbling wreck

I think that he will have to do a lot via executive orders and the administrative state given the Republicans will block everything as per. However there is a lot he can manage that way, and through the budget reconciliation process in Congress.

Democrats control both houses. What they do or don't get done is entirely up to them.

The filibuster is still there. And Joe Manchin.

No chance Biden completes his term. He looks 90.

I can well imagine I need someone to do 2 videos, one of bane video with trumps voice and another the other way round.

They control both houses now after winning the senate runoffs in Georgia.

 

[Solius]

He loves a sudden point at someone doesn’t he
