WWII wasn’t exactly 4 years, either.

But Joe is definitely keeping his ego and personality in check better than any president in my lifetime.

In a way, he's cracked the code. Leadership traditionally used to be about being larger than life, a singular figure that everyone else looked up to. But in the era of the billion dollar right-wing psychosis machine, that kind of attention magnet can be massacred no matter how virtuous they are. Joe is depriving them of a target and it's driving them into drooling insanity.

Today I feel he's the PERFECT person for the job.

We're at a sensitive time, right after C19 and the Trump fiasco.

We called Barack "No Drama Obama" and that's the same thing we needed today.

And Joe's doing it... it's called good governance. Getting the job done. Not swinging his dick on the table or being an a-hole...

Taking care of people when people needs to be taken care of.

minorities deal with .

Biden is acceptable to certain people who may deny being bigots but if a woman or minority was President and doing the exact thing Biden does they would go after them on .

The biggest being Biden speaking about social justice issues . This also shows how important it is for xtian straight white men to talk about these issues .

Байден профессионал, и надо очень внимательно с ним работать.

Not that Trump would even know what his master was talking about.

"Biden is a professional, and you have to pay lots of attention while working with him."

I wonder what Eisenhower would think about today’s Republican Party, with people like Louie Gohmert, MTG, etc. I do know that his descendants are mostly Democrats now, same with the Rockefellers.
