Anderson Cooper 360 tweets with VIDEO CLIPS OF THE BIDEN INTERVIEW tonight

So far I have NOT been able to find the complete interview anywhere.

Just have the tweets below.

The first two tweets here, though separate tweets, are apparently the same video clip -- just tweeted separately to emphasize different points:








The rest of the interview, including the amazing final section where Biden is offering emotional advice on grieving to families of shooting victims.













If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

Former VP Joe Biden offered emotional advice on grieving to families of shooting victims, speaking with @andersoncooper in deeply personal terms as he reflected on the family tragedies he's endured.

It's so unbearably hard.

He gives much of himself in that last segment. He is the polar opposite of trump.

Such a contrast to the ass in the White House now. He is so compassionate and smart too. He will make a great President.

Biden is our national grief counselor




Speaking to those who’ve endured unimaginable loss, Biden said, “Find a purpose, something that matters, particularly if it’s something connected to the loss you just had. . . . I get up in the morning and I think to myself every morning, is [Beau] proud of me? Am I doing what he wants? And I’m sure that it’s the same way with you and a whole lot of other people.”

He added that “at a moment there will come a time when you think of the person you lost, and it takes a long while. But you’ll get a smile before you get a tear, and that’s when you know you’re going to make it. And so many people have gone through what I’ve been through without the help I had.”

Often chided for gaffes, Biden, we see, can be downright profound when discussing loss. Wrapping up, he explained, “Sometimes it’s really dark, but there is hope. And think about what it means for those family members you have left — they need you. They need you. And look, folks, that’s why I think that it matters the stories of these people, for the public to understand that this is not just a statistic. This is — this is who we are, who they are. I mean, it’s a — and it really is about, you know, sort of reweaving that social fabric that holds a society together— honesty, decency, hope, leaving nobody behind, giving hate no safe harbor.”
