where is Joe Biden lately? i haven't seen him for a few days [View all]

he could be holding alternative pressers to respond to Trump's daily press-abuse event with a real discussion of the situation we face as Americans, and as humans

if he's giving Trump room to try out presidentin' during a crisis, that grace period better end really soon

else people will start associating whatever Trump does with actual leadership and we will lose bigly in November

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