It was nice of them to close with the British National Anthem 
Fuck yeah. About time.Wokestan über alles.
Interesting Biden, who made a career of reaching across the aisle, called grown up Joffrey out by name. Big thumbs up.

It needed saying, and I am both slightly surprised that he said it, and simultaneously slightly surprised that he didn't say it sooner.

That's exactly right! If we just tweaked the photo to make it look like Biden is Hitler, he'd look like Hitler! That is so scary! Socialism! Socialism! Let's go hide somewhere. Not together as Mother said not to do that anymore. Somewhere separately, like in our own doomsday prepper bunkers. I'm bringing an AR-15, a Holy Bible, and ivermectin in mine, but not 5G. They use 5G to activate the microchips.

You will be who you will be. We are our choices.
For years, the strategy was "When they go low, we go high." It takes a lot to admit that it was the wrong approach.
Now the "**** your feelings" crowd is all weepy that they've been called out, and I'm enjoying it.

Where them = MAGA fascists and us = Democrats/Independents/Republicans that haven't lost their mental faculties.
Of course, with the Dobbs case, and current new voter registration trends, it is also going to be "My Uterus" v "Conservative Males". Make no mistake, this speech was a call to rise up and vote the MAGA fascists out.
The economy added 315,000 jobs last month, gas prices are easing, Biden has signed a good deal of legislation, and Dobbs has lit a fire under women voters. Historically, a red tide was in order. But this could become a blue tsunami. The impact of Dobbs can not be over-stated or predicted. The GOP most certainly underappreciated the impact Dobbs would have on the electorate.
Granted, still could have red tsunami too. What I will say is you can't trust polling for the 2022 election because Dobbs will make turnout models impossible to get accurate.
That's exactly what the speech did and what I'm talking about. Many of us already knew this, it's just now official since the president said it.

Eh, I don’t really agree. I think it’s not just important but absolutely essential to identify and address problems directly. The fact that a former president of the United States stole documents that are not just classified but top secret, concealed them, lied about having them, delayed returning stolen property and then only partially returned what he was legally required to return is extremely serious stuff. It’s far, far worse that Trump is credibly suspected of sharing, revealing or even selling these documents pr information contained within the documents or their facsimiles. People DIED after Trump requested the names of agents while he was POTUS. As disturbing is that members of his party—elected officials! have not called him
out and previous few have done anything to dissociate themselves from Trump.
I don’t care if peoples feelings get hurt when Biden says out loud what everybody knows.

As an overseas observer I thought his speech was powerful. I hope every American listens to him.

Has a certain, "Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Fuehrer" look about it.

Coincidence? I think not.
Good. The only thing that can stop a bad guy with Hitler-like tendencies is a good guy with Hitler-like tendencies. It's about time some very fine people were in charge of the Whitehouse.
Doesn't matter anyways, you're dead fucking wrong. This has a Brotherhood of Nod vibe towards it. And that's awesome.
Yeah! Fascism is cool when my side does it!
