really grateful to be able to publish this piece on Biden, written by a man who knows him, loves him, worked for him, but wants to see things go differently now www.thebulwark.com/p/joe-biden-...

" Sit on a park bench." Are you freaking kidding me? How condescending. Why does everyone feel the need to tell Biden what they think he ought to do? Those who purport to care about him could keep quiet and not get on the bash-him bandwagon.

Leave Joe alone. Do you all not see what is going on right now? The past is behind us, the reality of tyranny is here and the future looks bleak. So,I repeat. Leave Joe alone. Do your jobs.

I think many of the people commenting on this piece haven’t read the article. It speaks very highly of Biden for the most part and encourages him to use his superpower- his empathy & ability to connect w people - to give voice to the marginalized. It’s actually a lovely piece.

You think "go sit on a bench" is respectful? This, to me, is akin to a backhanded compliment. I found the article insulting.

Not to pile on - I'm sure this is a fine piece of writing - but why do we need to keep talking about Biden? Seems like exactly the conversation that the current administration wants us to have - which is why they keep bringing it up. I don't see the up side. Genuinely curious about the logic here.

Ok. Fine. Now that I've read the story... it's worth reading. I still think we should stop talking about him - but I was right - it is indeed a fine piece of writing.

It tarnished Biden’s post-presidency when he sent 10,000 thugs to the Capitol Building to disrupt the electoral vote count in 2025. Oops, sorry, that was a different guy.

FFS. Fucking stop. Why are we bashing Joe when there is a person in office currently who is clearly suffering from some sort of degenerative disease and looks older than him that is breaking the Constitution. This is why everyone sane hates the media.

I really appreciate this article and your perspective of Biden. I think his handlers in the WH didn't like the unscripted moments because any misspeak or flub was exaggerated by the MSM even though you are right that he shined in those moments.

Also, if the MSM was saying you had dementia while president, I'm pretty sure most people would fight back. It's unfortunate that is the story to sell a book and it is preventing Biden from doing the things you speak of.

Why is everyone picking on Joe Biden? He dropped out of the race, has no formal role in the Democratic Party & isn’t making a nuisance of himself in the media. We owe him an enormous debt of gratitude for his exceptional public service, rather than the daily insults now being thrown his way.

Because the media loves to make false equivalences and thinks people will continue to buy this bull shit story-line they relentless pitched last summery which essentially lead to Trump 2.0. They need to owe to the fact that they fucked up with this shit.

While I find is unforgiven that he decided to run again, it’s a good piece reminding that Biden is a good man and was pretty good president, but he should disappear now. Just go live your quiet golden years, you earned it.

Pretty sure their corporate overlords are telling them to spit out this garbage but at this point they just need to stand up and say no. I blame them for give us Trump 2.0. I was screaming with the Joe is Old narrative last summer and I still haven't forgiven them for it.

Biden will go down as the greatest failure in history. Neville Chamberlain had the good sense to step aside when his nation was in mortal danger and he was not up to the task. Biden slept through the US's greatest danger since Pearl Harbor, then clung to power until long after it was too late.

Biden's legacy will be an entire world in chains. Anyone looking to whitewash this is not your ally or friend. They are rabid defenders of the status quo as it exists in the now. Witless weathervanes of political ambition, agenda-driven mouthpieces. They are the evil that looks sweet, but kills.
