That FOX news will be complaining about how many times Biden walks his dog........Just like we did by providing a running account of how many DAYS Trump played golf........

I really think that Biden's wife should go out with a full length rain coat every day with a message like Melanoma printed on the back of hers.....

I'm a devout dog lover. Let me tell you, when you're beloved besties hit the 10+ year mark, you begin to start the horrific realization that you're going to have to let them "go". I've been decimated at every junction, and one doesn't ever get over it. Joe Biden's had to deal with so much loss, I can't imagine how he manages -- but then it hits me, we all do and we have no choice -- ever.

German Shepherds (and other large breed dogs) age very dramatically after about 8 - 10 years. It's not uncommon for these dogs to die beginning at the age of about 9+ years old, and they have significant health issues along the way over that age. It's a heart breaker. People need to think about that when they set their hearts on large breed dogs. But it's impossible because we love what we love. (But I'm an equal dog lover - I loves 'em large or small.

He isn't standing there stiffly (while sucking in his massive gut) glaring at the photographer, either, with a fake tough guy expression.

I love the casual dress for both of them. Normal is the new look for POTUS and FLOTUS. Maybe all those people who said they thought disgraced 45 was one of them will be able to relate and recognize normal. Or maybe not.

And his vapid wife is jealous of Jill Biden. All the money they pretend they have and the both of them are two of the most miserable wretches. Proves what my parents said over and over again while I was growing up - money doesn't buy happiness.

No ties hanging down to your knees , no stilettos , no staff surrounding them being ordered to praise them waving their flags all while he is telling them he’s just like you. And tonight Fox will be attacking them for not looking Presidential. And the best part Joe doesn’t give a hoot what they say about him he’ll just let it roll off his back because he’s not a narcissistic.

Our great President Biden will help us get though everything and has already started to do the damage inflicted by the last guy. And it is beautiful to have a real First Lady, Dr. Biden.
