Good. With every minute that passes, we move on from Trump's America. He doesn't deserve recognition from Biden when he can't even gracefully accept defeat.
President-Elect Joe Biden November 7th Speech Thread
- Thread starter Meelow
- Start date
All the talk about cooperation is good and well but how are you going to a) cooperate with Republicans and b) pass progressive legislation?
It's probably the best speech you can give at this moment but forgive me if I am skeptical about the contents of it.

Let's hope so, because this country needs stimulus and the first thing Graham talked about was the national debt.
We don't really have time to shift left. Change is going to have to come from below, not up top.
That's much better than what I have been conditioned to associate it with living in Glasgow, what with sectarian Rangers football fans!
Fireworks display was great. Speech was great. I think I preferred Harris's speech overall.
The amount of protesting I had participated with the bullshit Trump had put this country in, finally, we have someone in power to fix our country. I'm proud to be a American tonight.
God bless you all.

Joe Biden did in one speech what Donald Trump couldn't do in four years: put a nation at ease.
It's nice to see a professional on the job again.
Great speech.

Great speech.
That lead up, when he was mentioning jobs and races, then pause, the black vote, was the most powerful thing I heard in a long time. Instant tears.
These kinds of speeches don't really do much for me just in general, but I will say it is SO nice to hear a president vocally acknowledge trans people specifically in a major speech.
I'll also say he looked and sounded really sharp and steady in general.

When he specifically called out African Americans, that was special.
Agree completely. It was a fantastic speech and I feel more excited about the future of america than I have in... forever?
Mentally comparing Kamala & Joe's speech tonight to Trump's lying, exhausted rant from yesterday and god damn, it's so great to have a real president again.
That was a fucking great speech. Needed hear something like that to rekindle hope about the years to come.
it'll be a relief not immediately wondering "oh great how's he gonna fuck this up" when some major crisis happens,unlike the last 4 years
What an unbelievably strong speech from Kamala, you couldn't write that any better, it was perfect, really impressive.
Biden was great too, what a difference to the last 4 years.

I felt something when Biden held up his son's hand towards the end. That's what a real, loving relationship looks like.
