My oldest daughter asked me afterwards, “Do you know that strange guy?” I told her not really but I have heard a few of his songs. She said, “Oh, I thought you were like old hunting buddies or something.”
      Cool story.

            This is debatable. I don’t trust adult men that drive small trucks.

              I'm not advocating a return to Trump, but anyone who is satisfied with the current administration is either a fool or is profiting from the politics of division. And as Alzheimers Joe would add, "End of paragraph...smile at audience...put two thumbs up."

                Glad to see you for one are all for not contributing to the politics of division.

                  I voted for Biden and would do so 1000X if the choice were between him and Trump, but he has really bungled the presidency.

                    I agree, but not sure I I would characterize his handling of the presidency as 'bungled.' Maybe wasted? Is there a difference in those terms? Anyway-- I've been his loudest critic (actually articulating policy disagreements and criticisms-- not attacking him for his stutter or his age-related lapses) and experienced a bit of blowback on here for some of the things or maybe the manner I expressed it... but make no mistake. I will never vote for a Republican again until Trumpism is completely rejected. I have no patience for politicians playing the fence on this one. People like Desantis taking plays out of Trump's authoritarian playbook is not slick at all.

                    IMO Biden's biggest mistakes are sins of omission. He seems so scared of criticisms from people that will criticize him no matter what he does (or maybe he still has a misguided notion of uniting the country by not offending right wing extremists) that he is stalled in in a perpetual state of inaction. Best example I can think of is the propaganda spewing from the GOP about the so-called "Biden Border Crisis." Well Biden has not installed a single policy relative to the border, border security, or intake of asylum applicants. All of Trump's shocking policies are still there, including Title 42, which gives CBP the authority to turn away asylum applicants because of covid concerns (the only time the GOP will claim that covid is dangerous, it appears) and MPP, which forces asylum applicants to survive in Mexico while awaiting their day in court (which SCOTUS just knocked down, but now we will see a surge of those people, which will no doubt be characterized as Biden's fault. See how that works? Trump enacts morally dubious policies to bottleneck the flow of immigrants, much to their peril and the denigration of our national integrity, and the temporary chaos that results from undoing those terrible policies lie at the feet of the incumbent.)

                        Who does Bernie Sanders think he is criticizing our president for getting Saudi Arabia to increase oil production to lower our gas prices?!? People are hurting paying these high prices at the pump. Joe is truly a man of the people. So what if the leaders of this county have maybe killed a few people here and there. We need to overlook that because we need lower gas prices and we need them now.



                        Oh wait... Biden didn't get the Saudis to increase oil production. Nothing to see here.

                          The only thing that really matters is if he got to look into that magic crystal ball thing.

                              Holy breakfast tacos! 19% approval and 70% disapproval:

                              Poll Shows Biden at 19 Percent among Hispanics

                              The vast majority of Hispanics are unhappy with President Biden’s overall job performance, and their dissatisfaction extends to a suite of issues including the economy, foreign policy, gun violence, and the handling of Russia-Ukraine crisis.

                              Only 19 percent of Hispanics approve of Biden’s conduct as president, while 70 percent disapprove, according to a new Quinnipiac poll released Wednesday. Of Hispanics who disapprove, 49 percent feel strongly about it while 20 percent are somewhat discontented.
                              [...]


                              And only 31% approval overall:

                              President Biden’s job approval rating hits new low in public poll
                              • More Americans now think President Joe Biden is doing a bad job than at any prior point in his presidency, according to a major public opinion poll.
                              • Just 31% of American adults said they approve of the way Biden is handling his job, while 60% disapproved of it, the Quinnipiac University poll found.
                              • More than 70% didn’t want Biden to seek a second term in the White House, compared to 60% of people who said they did not want to see former President Donald Trump run in 2024.
