THIS is what I have on the topic from above:
Sorry folks, but I really have to post this about today's New York Times account of last night's Trump's Rome, GA talk!
https://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/03/10/us/2024-presidential-election
For all of our non-subscribers:
"In a combative speech filled with insults, Trump mocks Biden’s stutter and vilifies migrants and others.
"Early in his remarks in Rome, Ga., at what was effectively his first campaign rally of the general election, former President Donald J. Trump on Saturday blasted President Biden’s State of the Union address as an “angry, dark, hate-filled rant” that was more divisive than unifying.
"He then mocked Mr. Biden’s lifelong stutter, a jab that set the tone for his lengthy speech that followed.
"Over nearly two hours, Mr. Trump lobbed sharp personal attacks at Mr. Biden’s mental and physical health and revived a litany of grievances against political opponents, prosecutors and television executives. He used inflammatory language to stoke fears about immigration, called the press “criminals” and repeated his false claim that the 2020 election was stolen from him."
On the topic: I believe that Biden handled his stutter quite well, everything else being equal.
For whatever reason, I didn't see his SOTU as "desperate".
For the life of me, I simply can't see his "wrong"; what I did see is someone who knows that he's in for a battle in November. As for a "stolen 2020 Election", SORRY, I don't agree WHATSOEVER of his claim that ACTUALLY tears directly at the heart OUR Democracy. Finally, as for the "press being criminal". if nothing else, I.m DAILY PO'd at the NY Times for treating Trump more than fairly and giving him too much slack!
