This was a dazzling performance from the new president. He told Americans where things stand, where the country is going and offered hope for the future. The presidency is now in the hands of a person who is more than up to the challenge.

President is delivering more than results. He’s also offering hope and a vision for the future. - PoliticusUSA

2. The speech was really well done.

Joe spoke with empathy and passion, was informative, and gave us hope. The aim to have everyone eligible for vaccination by May is huge news. There's the light at the end of the tunnel! Wonderful!

4. First, Covid. Next, the GOP hate machine which must be stopped.

Hugely.

5. I think Joe Biden is going to be the best president of my lifetime.

And I do not say that lightly. He reminds me of how my parents talked about FDR.

Biden is not just a talker. He has taken a great deal of concrete action to help the American people during a period of multiple threats and crises. And he has just begun.

He said he was putting his soul into this job and I think he has.
For some reason this speech today reminded for a minute of JFK.
I have no idea why, it just did. The energy, the hope, the attempt to make better lives for all?

12. He will be remembered in the same vein as FDR

maybe even better!

[Irish_Dem]

13. Yes I think so.

I hope McConnell and the rest of the evil GOP do not slow Joe down too much.

[demtenjeep]

14. they are going to try their hardest

but Joe has experience

[Irish_Dem]

16. Yes he is quite experienced and seen it all.

Will be an interesting battle.

22. That will depend on if the other major parts

of Biden's agenda become law and things like the child tax credit increase become permanent.

6. K & R

Welcome words from a real, true leader.
Thank you Joe!

7. Big sigh of relief in my apt tonight.

My birthday is July 3, so maybe I will be able to visit with my mother for the first time in over a year!

8. It was a great speech. Much needed.

9. He laid a clear path in the weeks to come

What it will take for us - all of us - to do so that we can all move forward together. He didn't detour into irrelevancies about how great he is, what his ratings are, or what a bunch of poopyheads everyone else is. He had the details on the just-signed Covid relief legislation, thanked Congress appropriately for their work in bringing the bill to him for signature.

Biden knows how government can work and has the people in place to do what he wants to get done. It's quite a change from the previous four years.

24. TFG Set a low bar for Biden to clear

And Biden continues to sail miles above it. A president who has and shares detailed plans rather than lists of grievances!

Somehow TFG kept managing to tunnel under the bar of his expectations, no matter how much it was lowered. (How presidential! He's reading off a teleprompter!)

11. I loved the "tribal land and territory", this is a real American.

[OMGWTF]

20. Me, too!

[BobTheSubgenius]

17. Another reason to be proud, and as pleased as punch.

In spite of the rigours of the Trumpvirus, President Biden has still made this a great time to be a Democrat.

18. K&R!

19. Thought he was brilliant. Although I wish he had talked

more about the variants.

[Nixie]

21. Thanks to President Joe Biden for the May 1st vaccine

eligibility for all Americans. He is handling this superbly.

[Deminpenn]

23. Biden speeches aren't dazzling as much as they are "homey"

like a chat with Dad or Grandpa. Biden's not a great orator in the mold of Lincoln, JFK, FDR, but he's down to earth, maybe more like Truman.
