Biden is a good man.

After you put aside all the Brandon bullshit the right has been dishing at him, the west coast of Florida, which is primarily red in its political views have this comfort: They know that Biden isn't as spiteful as your average Republican. They know he isn't vindictive and won't try to "teach them a lesson," He is a compassionate man that will put his politics aside to reach out to those who were most harmed by Hurricane Ian. It's a comfort that many of the blue areas and Puerto Rico never had from Trump when they were in need.

Biden is a good man, and it's a shame that this is a value that many of them do not appreciate, until they're the ones who are in need.

The more we do for them, the more angry and violent they become?

Good men just aren't in high demand in the country today. People like Trump, Walker, Greene, an McConnell are all the rage.

I GUARANTEE you that they don't.

They just lose the right to bitch and complain about him for a day or two. They sure as shit won't give him ANY props. DeSatan on the other hand, can do no wrong.
