21. Obama had civil opponents. Biden has Trump.

Which includes Trump's bottom of the barrel supporters. I remember John McCain defending Obama when a voter called him a "Muslim" in a very derogatory manner. You will never see that with Trump.

I'm not suggesting Biden start insulting POW's, or mocking the disabled, or calling women dogs, pigs or horse face. But damn it, it felt so good to see Biden get angry and defend himself. What is it with Democrats? it's like we always have to walk on eggshells and worry about offending anyone, and if we should, an apology is not enough. While Trump comes out with anything he feels like saying and his supporters love it..."because he is honest", or as my cousin a Trump supporter says: "No one is perfect." Yeah, that's how she defends him.

I'm glad Joe got angry and called that trump supporter a liar, and I love Joe's new ad. I've seen a lot of positive feedback, Joe came as strong and ready to fight. Joe is a civil man, but I think like anyone, there's a line you don't cross.

Sorry about the 94 year old woman being upset, or any one else but the times are changing. If you are going up against Trump and his supporters you better know how to give it right back, not just take it. I just wish Democrats would stop eating their own over every damn little thing.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
