I love the way our President is clarifying trump's behavior and the issues he supports. And Biden doesn't get nasty or stupid about it the way trump does.
President Biden is a gentleman. A polished diplomat. He has a heart and it shows. tRump is a pariah. A wannabe dictator. An enemy kiss-ass. An adulterer. A misogynist. An immigrant hater....unless they happen to be his wife or in-laws. How convenient. A toxic narcissist. Not worthy of ever having stepped foot in the White House. History will be the judge. Mary Ann MacLeod Trump would have done the US a favor if she had aborted him.
I am so glad to read these accolades of our President! I agree that Biden is a good man! (After all, he loves dogs, doesn’t he?!😊) I sincerely hope that more voters see this side of him, &!go out & vote blue in November!!
Thank you, Veronica, for giving proper credit to Joe Biden. I love what you said about him. I like Joe Biden more than ever and feel that he has lived all his life for this moment in history.
After all this time calling Joe Biden, Sleepy, Dozing Don can't even stay awake in his own criminal trial!
Trump knows his house of cards is falling down. We are witnessing a malignant narcissist "melt-down" in real time. If any other defendant ranted the way that trump does (gagged?🙄)...they would have been fined or imprisoned already.
Trump is all those things. He is a con man, he is a grifter, he is a highly skilled manipulator of a large part of the American population. But he is essentially not awfully bright. And Trump is a puppet.
If you don't already know who is pulling the strings and feeding Trump his lines, you can get an overview quickly on Wikipedia. The whole Roe v Wade debacle (a nice disttraction along with the "Immigrant Problem", to keep voters from noticing that the Trillionaires and CentiBillionaires pay almost nothing and control almost everything, and want to keep it that way) is a VERY quiet man whose name is LEONARD LEO. This is who we peons should be watching.
Those of us who read Jane Mayer's DARK MONEY a while back and/or related reporting on the subject have been following Leonard Leo and the Federalist Society for some time now. Do you really think the Dobbs decision is just "a nice distraction"? A case could be made that it's an example of right-wing overreach. Whether they get away with it is still up in the air. But it woke more people up than the name of Leonard Leo ever will.
Aha! I thought Substack was Substack, and WordPress was WordPress, etc., no matter what the medium. The whole idea of reading anything serious on my phone -- I can barely imagine. OTOH, since I edit for a living (and write for other reasons), my laptop is usually in my lap so that's what I use.
Really glad to see the Biden campaign punching with force. But as long as Fox is allowed to peddle disinformation as news, 40% of the country won't hear anything about it. Would be fun to chronicle how Fox covers the NY election interference trial, compared to what really transpires...
Agreed. I've written ad nauseam about bringing a version of the Fairness Doctrine back, adapted for today's media climate. Calling it censorship is complete BS; the RedLion opinion was good law for decades with no problem under the 1st A.
Boy I sure needed to read this today!! I've had my TV off because 1) I needed a Mental Health day and a News Break and 2)I was outside most of the day doing yardwork & listening to music.
Thank you Scott!! Sure did lift my spirits!! It's great to see Joe in his element. As I'm catching up on the News this evening, I noticed Trump looks really bad. And I'm loving all the new Nicknames too. Here's a couple more. The NodFather and DozoDon. Too funny!! I think they probably sedated him so he'd keep his mouth shut during Court. About the only way he could more than likely. 😆 🤣
Now if our damn Congress would get it's sh#t together and get some money for Ukraine I just might sleep better tonight. Hope springs eternal. 💔🇺🇸💙
Thank you for this highlight. I missed the speech so I needed this.
I made stickers. This one looks great on my car. VOTE BLUE FOR FREEDOM
notice that the biggest word is FOR because the Blue team is FOR things. The other side is all anti. (Healthcare, education. Voting, Choice, supporting allies, reasonable gun control, democracy……)
I love the way our President is clarifying trump's behavior and the issues he supports. And Biden doesn't get nasty or stupid about it the way trump does.
That's a great way to say it! He addresses it without going to the dumpster

Nasty is the only tool Trump has! He plays it constantly.

This 2024 election T is great: t.co/l4pbfMJofY
Don Snoreleone has got nothing on Dark Brandon 🇺🇸🌊🗳️🧢
I saw that name for him yesterday and about lost it laughing!
The Nodfather 😂🧢🌊🇮🇱🇺🇸
I get it now; like Don Corleon the Godfather. 😏
😂🤣😅
Love Don Snoreleone, great one!
Really nice to see more confirmation that Biden is mastering the "Rope-a-dope." https://samray.substack.com/p/counter-narcissist-cheat-codes-rope
He's got the steps right Sam!
Indeed he did Scott. The right move with narcissists is to play possum until ready to strike.
That is spot on Sam!
Yep, you nailed it!
Ditto!
Great essay at that link, Sam! Rope a rope indeed!

Sorry! I was trying to be ironic. :-) And yes, Dark Money and Citizens United are HUGE and dangerous problems we need to fix.
I get it -- irony and sarcasm are hard to do on Substack: no emojis to help out. ;-)
Unless on mobile! 😊👍

What kind of editing do you do? And what do you write?
My life views and understanding have never been the same since reading Jane's masterpiece of investigative reporting.
Same here -- even though I thought I was fairly savvy before I read it. I wasn't.
Thanks for this, Scott. It’s SO nice to read positive news about Biden. I get kinda tired of the rage posting about tfg.
Thank you! And it’s nice to write stuff like this too. 👍👍

And that has GOT to end. We can’t have “news” peddling lies. Different opinions? Fine. Lies. NFW
Agreed. I've written ad nauseam about bringing a version of the Fairness Doctrine back, adapted for today's media climate. Calling it censorship is complete BS; the RedLion opinion was good law for decades with no problem under the 1st A.
Yes, a side by side comparison would be fantastic.
Wow, that was wonderful! Way to go, Mr. President!
Woo woo!
Thank you for stating Biden’s highlights while he dropped the ball on Trump’s weaknesses. Excellent!
Happy to Fran!
Go, Joe! Now, visit Erie, Pittsburgh, and Philly. You can win Pennsylvania!
Like he did in 2020! :)
Biden is on the loose - a plethora of zingers telling it like it is!
Was great!
This really was great
Agreed!

Thanks so much Lisa!
Amen on Congress!
And "Godfarter"
Great speech with delivery. The gloves are off! Yay!!!
I agree Sherry!

Here's another, "Vote Blue for Prosperity"!
Has tRump tried saying he’s not sleeping, he’s praying? Wouldn’t surprise me.
lol well Lisa I am guessing that would've been the smart play instead of just giving angry looks to Maggie Haberman in the courtroom
