I am glad he is back, he took a hiatus after his wife died. Irish_Dem Jul 2024 #25
He should return to that hiatus. Self Esteem Jul 2024 #48

Are you suggesting Biden's administration covers up his medical reports? Self Esteem Jul 2024 #53
I would never suggest that. In fact, I'm not sure they're being transparent with us. Wingus Dingus Jul 2024 #55
Okay. So, you think the White House is lying about Biden's health. Self Esteem Jul 2024 #60
Nope. Lack of transparency about something that occurred last week is not lying Wingus Dingus Jul 2024 #61
