    ...until someone asked a question he didn't like, so he then stomped offstage. And his answers were too often nebulous and inconclusive. It took hours because he didn't have the necessary information.

    Questions in advance equals a news media completely invested in making Biden look as good as possible. I would say he needs to prove he can think on his feet, but I guess just being able to think in any capacity is about all we can hope for.

    Apparently, you didn't watch his inauguration speech and other recent public speeches. At least he's not mentally ill....

    It's just trying to THINK in entire phrases that's giving him trouble.

    Nope! You obviously haven't been watching. I'm betting he's also an adventurous yet gentle lover.

    The undeniable fact is that no president ever used the bully pulpit like Trump did to promote a pack of lies. The last press conference he had was so incredibly full of lies about his failed re-election, every single network - including FOX - immediately pulled the plug on covering it and left Trump talking to himself. This was unprecedented in American history.

    I wouldn't count on it. Incompetency breeds excitement, but of an unpleasant variety.
