I hope everyone is listening to Biden's speech and presser right now 2.00 pm 02.24.2022.

We are in FDR territory.

THIS is what world leaders do.

Calling on assholes like the Fox guy.

Answering questions from one and all.

Tough measures with still more being held in reserve.

Strategic and IN CHARGE.

Biden said that is not what the majority of Europe wanted, and that the other sanctions would hurt Putin worse.

Too much gets lost in the shouting. An address behind the desk in the Oval is more appropriate for something this major, especially as it’s being introduced.

Time for a presser later.

These shout fests are almost never informative, often cringeworthy,etc. There are times when an address from the oval is called for.
That said, Pres. Biden handled questions with patience and grace.

the MSM will accuse Biden of being afraid of the press/something to hide/not being honest with the American people blah blah blah...on a positive note:no one is tuning into the MSM...they can't compete with a real time war on social media...
