Why Joe Biden May Be Exactly What The Country Needs Right Now | Deadline | MSNBC

    1. More like 2 or 3 – plus the economic devastation that continues each and every day. We get a body count every day – but, they dare not tell us how much money this is costing us.

    2. True. I think Boeing should be put outta business. If it was a car company, the gov woulda atleast launched an investigation abt now. What we need is crash testing & safety laws when it comes to planes.

    3. I don’t think most of us ARE. We need to organize, because the current administration is, and always has been, even before this, totally against people organizing for each other (like to fight a disease, for instance). They always call that sort of thing “socialism”, or “communism”, or even “antifa”.

    1. @Rickorzen he’s right. Who are black people going to vote for? The nan who endorsed Charlottesville?

    2. The good news is 40% of the country aren’t racists and neo nazis. The bad news is enough people hate the democratic establishment that much they’d rather be in league with them than against them. It’s worth 150,000 people dying to get medicare for all. Strange way to show you care. Should I feel bad for them? Not anymore. Was Bernie Sanders screwed? I doubt it or he wouldn’t still go on MSNBC. Either that or he really is a saint. One that created a monster. The racists are too dumb to understand any of this. They think Bidens the radical left when the radical left think he’s a republican

    3. @Bladerunner 1986
      Good points. My fear is that Biden, like Obama will drop the ball on the corruption for the last 40 years., which IS the reason so many hate the establishment. Regardless of whether we hate it, we must remain vigilant. They really screw us when we don’t

    4. @Southvalleyfox I think it’s best to not expect much except for the guy to not lie to the american people as much as he breathes and to not bow down to Russia. Normally it would be understandable if that doesn’t seem enough but things are so bad it has to be. I’d rather have Hillary but we can’t always get what we want

    1. @Edward Emmick Show me how Biden’s open boarder and free welfare, housing and healthcare for anyone that walks through- legal or not – is good for the economy. Show me how the lower middle class ( whom the US lives off of) will servive that.

    2. @Catherine3385 And he is going to eliminate all police forces, right. Catherine the nation is bankrupt we just don’t know it yet. Real worry to survive the trumpdemic which after six months he hasn’t a clue of a plan. The lower middle class is currently out of work and will be for five or ten years. Everyone went to the hospital racked up more bills then they will pay. We could easily pay for all those illegals with half the money trump is stealing from Americans.

    3. @Edward Emmick Dementia Jos Biden’s handlers would run this country into the ground. Trump wants everyone back to work and to reopen the country. (You have a 97.5% chance of being just fine if you get covid) The democrats want it all shut down. And how exactly is Trump stealing from Americans?

    4. @Catherine3385 Ever wonder how much his golf trips cost. Ever wonder why his family members are doing jobs that they are not qualified for. Being back to work to die is not a chance I am taking. Look at the disaster in red states that reopened. Every case that made the hospital costs more then a yearly income for most people. By staying home we save money in the long run. Knock yourself out.

    5. “I think he has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades,” former Defense Secretary Robert Gates says of Vice President Joe Bide

    1. Nothing sleepy about the integrity, compassion and morals of Joe Biden.
      No end to the lies, manipulations, total lack of morals and evil of trump.
      Extremely easy choice. VOTE BIDEN AND ALL BLUE!!!!!

    2. “I think he has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades,” former Defense Secretary Robert Gates says of Vice President Joe Bide

    3. I choose Donald over Joe Donald how is he a disaster explain Covid yeah no covid testing has saved many people! The deaths and cases are not all recorded if you don’t test enough! Sadly your party is so bad all it can do is scandalize Trump.

    4. Lilac Blacks for Trump. Joe Biden uses the N word but somehow the media claims that Trump is the racist. The Democrats were the original KKK and party of slavery but somehow Trump is the racist. We live in a state of hatred and intolerance caused by elites in the media and regressive leftists

  1. This message is lost on Trump’s blacks as he calls his black supporters they openly denounce our first black POTUS and openly support a racist 1

    1. Trump’s Blacks? Are you nuts? He has 6% of the colored vote. *LOL* He’s done. Out, easily in Nov. Will lose by over 150 electoral seats.

  2. I can’t understand how the US thinks they can inspire the world while Trump can still command 40% of the vote the rest of the world would not give him 20%

    1. You can rest assured that the other 60% of the U.S population is wondering the same thing.

    1. Joe Biden is a reminder of racism, just look at his recent and past comments. I thought you Looney Dems are against racist people.

    2. THERE ARE NO SLAVES. THERE ARE NO SLAVE OWNERS. SLAVE OWNERS WERE MAINLY DEMOCRATS FROM THE SOUTH. I APOLOGIZE TO NO ONE.

  3. I could go and dig up Nixon prop him up in the oval office get him on the ballot and he would get more votes than Benedict Donald.

  4. I feel Biden’s love for this country and trump’s party is not for country but self. The division is hurting us immensely and trump’s openness about racism just dumps him in his own swamp.

  5. once again Ms Wallace, the “republican” party you lament so much over
    is the very same party that generated deadlyoledon…
    flimsylinsey Graham has been in office since 2003, lil’JimmyJ since 2005,

    moscowmitch since 1985, Lisa Murkowski, 2002, Richard Burr, 2005, Devin Nunes 2005, Kevin McCarthy 2007…
    the list of pretrump enablers is lengthy, and telling…
    the “shining city on the hill” god, ronnieraygun, was just the demented waste-of-skin,
    in a prettier package, and all it takes is about 10 minutes of research to find that out…
    that party you seem to think was so much better before deadlyoledon,
    was peopled by the same sort of cold-hearted self-dealing sob’s,
    as it is now…they just publicly pretended that they weren’t…

    1. “I think he has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades,” former Defense Secretary Robert Gates says of Vice President Joe Bide

    2. @Erika Johnson he’s been caught lying about his qualifications, his schooling, his grades…add infinitum.

      He’s not fit to be an elementary school cafeteria worker.

  6. I hope Biden wins, but come on, his only positive is that he isn’t Trump. A very underwhelming nomination.

    1. They’re both people of a good people on both sides
      Because it was the cleaning racist so they were good people those football players sons of a b******
      Amoroso’s a dog
      5 million infected
      160000 dead
      40 million unemployed
      And all you got was a funky red hat and $1,000 check b****

    2. @ConservativeAnthem I care about people with dementia. I don’t want elderly people who don’t know if they’re running for president or running for school PTA getting shat on for something that they have no control over.

      FYI I’m not voting for anyone. I’m not old enough.

  7. Biden getting back up after his losses is what faith looks like. Faith in God to be precise. It is that faith that we need to get back on our feet. Trump has no clue what this sort of spiritual rock solid faith is, or why it’s important. It’s not showy. It doesn’t clear a street to hold up a bible. It quietly and methodically gets things done. We’re being tossed a lifeline. God help us if we toss it back.
