I'm listening to the repeat right now, and what he says is something that everyone should hear - his experience counts! 
If he'd said he was a one-term president, he would have been a "lame duck" from the beginning. And it's way too late to replace him now, it's an election year - besides, we're in the middle of serious crises, both supporting Ukraine and dealing with the dangerous Israel/Hamas war. President Biden has not only met with the leaders involved, but he understands the issues. After 36 years in the Senate he was chosen as Obama's VP for his foreign policy experience. He is clearly our most experienced POTUS in history and I'm sick to death of the comments about his age. TFG is almost the same age and he forgets who he's supposedly running against, not to mention all that comes out of his mouth are lies. We're extremely fortunate to have a president with Biden's knowledge and experience in these perilous times. 
How many thousands died of Covid before Biden got the vaccine available across the country? TFG told them to "drink bleach!" TFG stole classified documents - did he share them with the Russians, jeopardizing national security? Not to mention, TFG alienated our allies in favor of the brutal dictators he "loves." Besides dealing with the pandemic, one of Biden's first priorities was to mend fences with our long-term allies. TFG condemns NATO. And I don't even want to imagine what he'd do regarding the crises we're facing today, We need Joe Biden and his experience more than ever right now.
and Biden himself. Lawrence's 28 minute class was worth every minute. He killed it. Thanks for this!
And I found what he said quite useful today when speaking with a couple of friends who can't stand TFG, but aren't enthusiastic about Joe Biden, either.
I simply tell Biden doubters I'd rather go for the guy with 81 christian years than the guy with 91 criminal counts. 
And you'd think he'd care since he's a gay man. 
they can't trust that their freedoms are protected in a 'free' country. In a high tension election year, it can be exhausting to be part of a targeted group, imo.
