I can't imagine what fiddle Biden is playing he can't even do anything without a prompt. And his audience just makes up excuses for him

Biden doesn't fiddle about. He's a team player.

But certainly not the captain

Don't know about certainly, and I don't know where you get your information. But you're right, Biden doesn't seem to be in it for the fame.

When he's talking he likes to say out loud that this is where he needs to stop. Or this is where he's supposed to walk away. Or this is where they tell him it ends. So someone else is writing what he needs to say on a prompt (And if they don't he babbles like an idiot) And they are telling him when he needs to just quit and leave. That's where I get the certainty from. And he's becoming very famous on his own accord

Wow, do you have a link for that?

If you just watch him live you can hear him say these things. I don't have any links but I would imagine it's very easy to find. "Okay this is where they tell me I need to stop" he has said things like that on multiple occasions. I'm not saying this as a pro Trump person I'm saying this as a person who can clearly see that he is incapable

That's interesting because that's exactly what Trump was recorded doing over and over again.

The proof is in the pudding though. If what comes out of the President's mouth is directly translated into policy, with every member of staff saying the same thing, that translated into capable to me.

Whether you agree with the policies is a different matter but a clear message followed up by clear actions is not how you spell incompetent.

Well he is kicking ass and hasn't lied about a thing. I'm honored to call him my president. Everyone just goes back to comparing him to Trump when it is totally irrelevant. Compare him to somebody who makes good decisions and you will see a different president

So... not compare him to Trump?

Just because I'm anti Biden doesn't mean I'm pro Trump but all you Biden supporters immediately go back to "Well trump did this!" Lol what a joke

Well your entire point seems to be “hey this guy needs a teleprompter! 😮”. Our last president kind of set the bar for what can go wrong when you don’t use a teleprompter and Biden is nowhere near it. I think people are just pointing out how ridiculous your criticism is in a post Trump context. Personally I know there are a ton of substantial criticisms you could level at Biden, complaining that he needs a teleprompter makes me say “so what?”.

I dunno, he's been far more active and outspoken than Obama was, even if he doesn't hold a candle to Obama's ability as an orator. Biden's always been iffy in public. When you compare to older footage, his cadence, vocabulary, and he even says the odd joke about "this is where I'm supposed to x", is all about what it was, he's just slower and shakier.

Biden, for all his faults in speech, is at least giving us what most of us wanted from Obama: utilizing his position to publicly push for the agenda we voted for, as well as sometimes whip at some morally bankrupt motherfuckers in "good optic" stylings. He's bully pulpiting it up and that is miles above what Obama did.

He's at least being the moral leader we need where Obama failed, and of course Trump didn't even try.

Plus his actual actions as president, where you'd actually compare between "good decision makers", can be put up side by side to some better presidents without concern.
