[getagrip_already]

3. His antagonistic relationship with the truth....

[IcyPeas]

6. another polite way of putting it.

[ooky]

4. Sounding very presidential. Like a leader.

[GemDigger]

11. Thank you!

Now THAT sounds like a real President. It's been so long since we have heard someone who is reasonable, balanced and statesman-like, I have almost forgotten that it should be the norm. I am so tired of the drama and insanity of Trump. I just want him to go away forever!

12. Biden spoke for like 20 minutes compared to drumps 11 minute act

21. Bookmarked

And this is how a real leader responds to an impending crisis.

9. when I am president we will lead with science.

10. I have to admit, he hit it out of the ballpark.

No teleprompter. No inner conflict speaking on this issue.

[Amaryllis]

13. Wondered if he had teleprompter. How do you know he didnt'?

[Baitball Blogger]

15. His eyes swept the room.

Ha! How would someone want to cartoon that idiom.

[Amaryllis]

17. A good speaker will do taht even with a teleprompter...

[Baitball Blogger]

18. Well, then he's a good speaker.

Not arguing the point.

[Bongo Prophet]

14. He did have a teleprompter, a good tool to deliver a smooth and well written message

Standard 2 screen type. You can see one of them as he leaves after the speech.

Of course, there's nothing wrong with that at all, and he did a great job delivering a very powerful counter-narrative.
That contrast with the current occupant should definitely move some hearts and minds.

[Baitball Blogger]

16. He did a great job making eye contact with the room.

[Amaryllis]

19. What a good speaker does...that speech sounded like one Obama would have given.

[Bongo Prophet]

20. Agree. it's not easy to pick up the scrolling telefeed while moving from one to the other

I think the 3 scroll type set up would be easier. (Left, right and center for looking straight to "TV" viewers)
Not even sure how many were out in the room, but that is part of the art.

Either will look better than that dead stare of the Occupant last night.

With any luck, Joe will continue hitting his stride on all this and sanity can regain some foothold next January.
