State of the Union Discussion Thread

I agree Fauci turned into a problem but who knew. The democrats were able to weaponize Fauci.
Lol trump allowed him to be weaponized. The fact is Trump turned Fauci into the face of the pandemic. You don't like Fauci be mad at trump and stop making excuses for it.

Most of them… but you asked the wrong question. The moderate nature lies in the agendas he didn’t push.

Do you disagree with:
Better mental healthcare
Opioid epidemic battle
Repairing police/community relations
Funding police
Going after pandemic relief fraud
Funding cancer research
Improving infrastructure
Transparency in election funding
Etc?

None of those things are “far left” agendas.

I’m not naive, I have zero faith in our legislature to get anything meaningful done, but that wasn’t the question. The question was about what he said.
Yes I disagree with all of it if he can't tell me how to pay for it. Otherwise it's just a child telling you their hopes and dreams.
 
CNN instant polling speech reaction was pretty dreadful for Biden. Even pointed out this was favored to a democratic polling population.
 
almost ALL media outlets are vulnerable. That is why they exist. The very fact that they are installing conflict tells me something. They want conflict to exist. That does not mean that every one is a criminal.
 
I heard this live, but this to me isn’t a big deal here. It was pretty clear what he meant.

I’m more interested in who he’s going to get?

I figure it was some sort of instruction/communication at the end of the prompter read. He's been stupid enough to read it out loud before.... 'end of quote'.

I agree with all of that but he gave little to no specifics as to how he was going to accomplish it.

You don’t disagree with the principle… I get it, your soul concern is tax money.
 
Sure.

Biden was my least favorite candidate on the primary ticket, and remains so. I liked the “Uncle Joe” of 20 years ago just moderately. He’s a lifetime politician, I tend not to like them inherently.

With that said, his speech wasn’t bad. He’s a meat and potato’s democrat, a true moderate and continues to push moderate issues. I think that’s a good idea right now. The divisions in this country, the political stalemates, require trying to find at least some common ground to try to push forward on progress. It was smart to mention securing the border and to flip the tone on “defund the police.” There was little mentioned that republicans could wholeheartedly disagree with unless they’re playing the partisan/contrarian roll. I liked the “United” tone. I liked the idea of capping insulin costs. I like the idea of international/universal corporate tax rates. Much of the rest were talking points that I don’t have much faith in passing without bipartisan bastardization.

He’s hard to listen to because he’s old and he stammers, but at least he’s a fairly relatable as a public speaker.

That’s all I got lol
“Unified” and “moderate” are terms that belong in the same sentence as “Biden” to the same degree that “empathetic” and “gentle” belong in the same sentence as “Hitler”

Yes. And it's confusing to me how anyone who is rationale can see it any different. You have to have a plan to pay for it. Don't even get me started on his plan to attack every American who wants to retire. It's like democrats don't know how 401K's work.

He explained how he'll fund it. He's gonna increases taxes for the top 1% and make those evil rich people pay their fair share!

Yeah, unite come together. But. if you don't take what equals to a flu shot you can't earn a living. The unite ship has sailed.
Or that if you don’t agree that men in dresses should be allowed to compete in women’s sports, then you are a bigot who is worse than Hitler. Yeah, reeeeeal easy to “unite” with that mind set 🙄
