Let me make this pellucidly clear

[malaise]

Biden is way to the right of me but facts are facts.
He deserves massive kudos for pushing the two most important issues- Democracy and Abortion rights.
He achieved the best midterm results in 90 years.
Give the man his credit or STFU M$Greedia.

1. Ditto

That is all.

2. Hi there

😀

19. I really clicked on this because of "pellucidly".

It's always nice to find an uncommon (to me) word used and I agree completely. Thank you for all of your words.....

21. Stole it from a union man ages ago

Here’s a nice link on its use at the Supreme Court - and welcome to DU.

3. Joe's a union man. M$M (owners) hate unions.

The reason unions are badass is if a billionaire walks into your office and starts demanding you work 12 hours a day 7 days a week to prove to him you deserve your job, you and your coworkers can legally make that one of the worst days of his life. - annevclark tweet

17. THIS.

So says this union member.

[malaise]

22. He also has working class roots

and they hate that too

[onetexan]

24. AND he appeals to blue collar voters

i looked at the electoral map & it's alarming to me how red the country is. Some pundit on msnbc mentioned a liberal rural voter is almost nonexistent. Most of our country consists of broad swaths of rural counties. Dems need to direct outreach to the voters in these parts of the country as well. We w be wise to learn from Fetterman & few others who focused their canvassing to their rural constituencies.

4. Thank you, Malaise!

7. 100%

[RobertDevereaux]

8. Right with you, in all way!

[GoCubsGo]

9. Thank you!

Maybe it's time for folks to stop second-guessing him. He's right almost as much as Hillary is.

[KarenS]

10. Exactly!!

11. A free press isn't free if you have to pay for it

Unchecked capitalism exists to choke democracy to death. Business is trying to usurp power from the people, and the media isn't formed by individuals, it's a business enterprise through and through.

12. Meaning of "Pellucidly"

I write in a maladroitly, gauchely, and dowdy manner but understand that most readers will skip words that aren't familiar.

Not all Texans are red.

15. hehehehehehehe

Welcome to DU - I love that word

[rubbersole]

13. The country owes a massive debt of gratitude to Joe and Jill Biden.

Not for being the most consequential president since LBJ, but for getting the stench of low class greed out of the Oval Office. Decency replaced phony bullshit.

[mollie8]

27. Amen

Joe's a real human being. Reminds me of my dad. Decency is his defining character trait.

[Magoo48]

14. Me too, every word.

[malaise]

18. They just can't admit the truth because he destroyed their fucking narrative

I mean good effing grief - best mid-term results in 90 years.
What more do they want?

[Magoo48]

23. I believe they are instructed to lean a specific direction and are closely monitored for compliance.

Their road is fairly broad but invariable in its course All off-ramps to deeper truth and it’s investigation are closed.

20. President Biden

has been the most effective president in my 58 years of life. I watched as he failed at his previous runs for president, and he wouldn’t have been half the progressive force he has been if he had been elected in earlier times. His time is now. I don’t trust the anti-Biden polls. Hopefully Sinema and Manchin behave for the next two years. And he’ll win the next election.

[FoxNewsSucks]

25. Agreed

I'm way left, and damn glad of the job Biden has done.

It's even more amazing when one considers the shit he walked into and the opposition he faced. From republicons, the media, and a couple turncoats

[Yavin4]

26. Biden is the most liberal Democratic president since LBJ

For most progressives, he's a moderate at best, but you have to compare him with his Democratic predecessors. He's well to the left of them. He has moved the party away from neo-liberalism and towards progressivism.

[Stuart G]

28. Why? Biden knows the show...Joe ain't new, and Joe cares about people.."All Of Us."

[Doc Sportello]

29. Well said

I didn't support Biden in the primaries but it is undeniable that he has done a great job as President and in turning the corner against fascism.
