    Of late I've only been watching French news because I want to know what actually is going on in the world. They don't cover things like who's inviting whom.

    How petty that Republicans can't applaud for people having health care.

    They wanted to take it away from people - of course they wouldn't be happy if people have it.

    Okay, I'm all for corporations paying (more) taxes. I'm all for wealthier people paying more taxes. But I'm not against less wealth people paying more in taxes as well. I mean, we have shit to pay for like education.

    Biden is feeding into the call & reply. This isn't just an applause track.

    $30 to $8 is not a 75% reduction. Close but not quite.

    I've said it before, but Biden is the old school people I grew up around. Kind, funny, but a toughness that you better be able to deal. The way he handled the GOP on the debt ceiling is an example.

    It was quite skillful. Plus, it followed up on his saying he wanted to work with Republicans.

    He can outdrive his headlights at times when he gets on a roll. Just stick to the script.

    At least when he does outdrive his headlights, he stays on the same road.
