Kudos to his speechwriters, and the people who prepared him for the hecklers, but Uncle Joe had to deliver and her sure did - big time. Great headline in Talking Points Memo: “GOP Stunned to Discover It’s Not Running Against A Cadaver.”
Very well done. A fair appraisal of the vibe in the room. For me, Biden's high point was when he stared down the Supreme Court and B-slapped them for overturning Roe v Wade. Hokey or not, I wanted to hoist him on my shoulders. The low point was hands down Katie Britt's dystopian diatribe following the SOTU. She could be Ghoulardi for a new age.
Please tell me he didn’t start with the usual “The state of the union is strong…” Pretty sure FanDuel would let you bet on that. Oh and also the over/under of standing ovations
Joe killed it and made those SC Justices squirm , as they so richly deserved He called Republicans out for their bullshit, bending over for Trump on the border bill...Taylor Greene is a cretin , a schmendrick of the first order who pees on decorum... Weir, by all accurate reports, had to address his alcohol consumption at gigs ,which he did. He's great and enduring!
Russ - Another JEP jewel! Not sure what Deb is referring to (must be the age difference?) but I agree! Here in rural France, the natives are also restless but for most, Trump is just a step too far. Joe is not exactly a friend of France or Europe but he is known and proven. His age is not a huge concern. Lunch is.

Excellent recap, Russ. Tenderly perfect.
A good look at the speech and his supporters. Among your best written, too.
