Joe has a younger, bright, classy in her own fashion, educated and frankly hot wife. She looks great in her wardrobe, has that depth to her face and gaze, and is, as my aunt of blessed memory would say with a smile, built cute. Shes a college professor and you can tell she really knows the score about everything.
The RWers hate all that. Shes got it all over Melania or whatever her real name is. And she didnt even need her kidneys fixed.

A HERETIC I AM
(24,370 posts)First time in history that both the president and his wife held Law degrees from an Ivy League school.
It sent a shitload of asshole Americans right the fuck off the edge and they haven't recovered.

(24,370 posts)The Clinton's did both have Ivy League Law Degrees. Shit!
OK, so this situation was the case with two out of the last 3 Democratic presidencies.
Can the Republicans EVER claim such a thing?
I have no idea why the Clinton's escaped my memory. My apologies, and thanks for the heads up!

(21,480 posts)like Sarah Palin, MTG, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Bang Bang Boebert, Michelle Bachman, etc.
And what is it with Republicans and politicians named McCarthy? Dems had a good Senator by that name, Eugene McCarthy. But Republicans had Senator Joseph McCarthy who was so awful that his name got attached to witch hunts as McCarthyism. And now they have Kevin McCarthy.

(10,003 posts)Republicans just could not stand the idea of a super intelligent black man occupying the office they believed was reserved only for a white man. Even a white man of low intelligence and no honesty or morals was preferable, as we saw with Trump.

(2,816 posts)That's how they met. That is what I'm saying Joe Biden didn't go to any ivy league schools, and went to a public school for college. He did go to Syracuse for law school.

Backseat Driver
(4,392 posts)Eleanor Roosevelt was no "looker." Neither was Janet Reno. What they did command was R-E-S-P-E-C-T by reason of other well-reasoned attributes, especially this one--they commanded respect! OTOH, these women had strong opinions that took no quarter on the foolishness of others nor in what they believed, nor what actions they may have taken in response.
Respect is THE character attribute that ALL Republicans in public life seem to have left behind. I don't know a single "good" character attribute for which to commend TFG and his MAGAT cultists. Many do have an attractive image or talent that Americans prize and award with their money, mainly in the fields of entertainment and sports, but are still seemingly soul-less creatures. Because they are cowards, they are also shallow, petty, divisive, inflexible, ignorant, selfish prevaricators, but mostly DISRESPECTFUL of life and law. Those should NEVER have been or be in any leadership position, elected, appointed, or promoted to high regard.
"Speak out against the hatred, the bigotry and the violence in this land, Reno said ...Most haters are cowards. When confronted, they back down. When we remain silent, they flourish.
True Blue American
(17,984 posts)Had lunch with Eleanor at the WhiteHouse. She said she was the most gracious, sweetest Lady she ever met.
And I remember the President very well. Listened to his Fireside chats. One reason I am a life long Democrat!
Warpy
(111,267 posts)Women are interchangeable and disposable commodities to them. If they're rich enough, they change them every few years.
They'd all rather have Melania. Or MTG (until she turns 50 next year and her figure changes). Or any female who can be arm candy.

(24,300 posts)was a photo of Dr. Biden in her younger years, looking fabulous, of course, and it said "Here is First Lady Jill Biden in her younger years. Note that she is wearing clothes."
MOMFUDSKI
(5,546 posts)I remember her telling the story of Biden asking her out and she said she had a date for that nite already. So, Joe says "break it" and she does by telling a fib of some sort to the date. And the rest . . . .

(6,265 posts)history has it been so easy to find nude photos of a FLOTUS. It's sad how far we've, without prompting fallen in respect in the eyes of the world. Thank god our current POTUS has shown the decorum style and grace exhibited by him and Dr Jill Biden is still present in our national leadership. God bless them both...
