I watched the first 10 minutes of President Joe

... and I had to turn it off. I just can't deal
with what is going to happen to America after
what I feel in bones was a dirty election.


BTW President Biden has been the best President of my lifetime.

I couldn't even watch 10 minutes of it. It's too sad. The end of a wonderful administration. Walleye Jan 2025 #1
I couldn't watch either. Too Angry. Too much negativity on our side. Joe did what he could. But now listen to us! Dorothy V Jan 2025 #4

I’ve been feeling so sad since the election and feel like I’m just now starting to get my bearings back that I didn’t want to relapse, if that makes any sense to anyone. As much as I love Joe, I knew I would be a blubbering mess.
