beginning to end, starting out with the history and respect for unions and labor to his Biden cancer initiative.

I say appearance because it wasn’t just the speech, it was his way with people and how he came across-substance!

Biden? He talked about Trumps name calling and personal vengeance.

Joe also talked about our energy independance. Reminding people of what they accomplished in 8 years while Trump is tilting at windmills. His ignorance on even the most basic things is so obvious.

Just....wow.

That was incredibly impressive, and hit all the right points. But more than that, it was authentic, honest, and inspiring. It was very positive. Only mentioned tRump once. He doesn't need to dwell on him, doesn't have to.

Very presidential. With that kind of speech, tRump won't stand a shot.
