But the more I thought about it, the more I realized Biden is exactly the correct messenger here.
Donald Trump is every single rich kid who ever made fun of Joe Biden for his stutter, for wearing hand-me-downs, for being driven to school in his parents' hoopty, for daring to think he could enter the world of the privileged.
Donald Trump is the epitome of everyone who has tried and failed to keep Joe Biden down, and Joe Biden is about to fucking own him.
I have zero reservations. This is the right play.

I will be sending the most powerful thoughts/wishes possible to Joe tomorrow night. I'm sure Warren will be joining me in doing so.

(15,237 posts)Trump needs to be slapped hard figuratively if not literally if he attempts to stalk Joe on stage as he did to Hillary. Visualize seeing and speaking to Hitler in person.

(18,402 posts)I'm of course not saying that EW didn't, just that Biden did and provides a good contrast with Trump. He had only his congressional salary for several decades, and then it climbed as vice president, and after leaving the White House, he began to make some real money through books and lectures: he paid every nickel on that.
