President Joe Biden said Sunday that former Vice President Walter Mondale helped him through some of the darkest days of his life.....

“The last thing I wanted to do was go to the United States Senate after that. We had elected a governor, a Democrat. He could appoint a Democrat. And I had my brother talking to him about who he would appoint. But there was Fritz and Joan; they embraced me,” Biden said referring to Mondale by his longtime nickname.

He added: “It’s not just being nice but bringing me in. They came to the hospital to see my boys.”

Biden said Mondale and others including then-Senate Majority Leader Mike Mansfield and then-Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) persuaded him to at least give the Senate a try for six months — and then kept him busy to get his thoughts off his family tragedy.

“They kept me engaged. They helped me get up when it was easy to give up,” Biden said.

1. Interesting to note...

How Joe is always quick to acknowledge and thank those who helped him along the way, in such a genuine and honest fashion.

I don't think I ever once heard FF45 acknowledge anyone else for helping or supporting him -- only me me me me me me me me -- a true toxic narcissist if there ever was one. On further thought, maybe nobody wanted to help a selfish wretch like him!

2. President Biden is a good person and cares about people

I got to discuss stuttering with President Biden at a fundraiser. He told me about the 20+ students he keeps track of. It is clear that he cares about these people

3. Ulysses S. Grant Saved America, and Joe Biden Saved it Again.

President Obama DID FUCKING AMAZING WORK after the Bush II admin almost sent us into a great depression.
President Biden IS DOING A FUCKING GREAT JOB after tfg tried to overthrow our government, and ignored a pandemic, and tried to break up NATO, etc, etc, and fucking etc.

Democratic presidents deserve SOOOOOOOOO much credit for saving our country.
But all we hear about is Ronald Reagan.
