I read it wrong. It really didn't seem like you. I sincerely apologize.

Still.. you can't listen to the M$$$m.. They wanted a Red Wave.. Didn't get it.

We Win In Spite of the US MEDIA .. or Not.. think what they did to Gore, Hillary, and tried to do to Pres Obama.

And, they built up trump.. look where that got us. The media is the Enemy of our State. They're into RATINGS NOT Real News.

Look at his Record about what he's Accomplished and how well he did at the SOTU! Pres Biden has so many positive Accomplishments.
