On game

I didn't see the whole thing but the excerpts I did view showed me that Biden was on his game. Combatative and firm, he even chastised the Supreme Court justices who saw fit to begin to snowball the country backwards by repealing Roe; a decision which most Americans oppose. The GOP gambled decades ago by courting evangelicals whose views are too radical for the vast majority of the country.

For his part, the GOP candidate is a slurring and confused idiot but he does somehow have his finger on the pulse of the most disgruntled and misinformed portion of the electorate who no doubt feast on FOX News. The choice in November should be between a seasoned but tired politician versus someone who would sell his mother for a buck and throw you under the bus in a heartbeat, and yet the polls don't reflect it.

That's too bad, because the consequences may indeed be dire. If you wanted concrete proof that rhetoric and hyperbole can work for despots, here it is.
