Douglas Brinkley on CNN says Biden's message is, "We've got to get this bum out of the White House."

He's right.

Though Biden said it much more eloquently.

Definitely not a winning message. The focus needs to be on restoring America's integrity, rebuilding America's infrastructure, and improving the lives of ordinary citizens. Healthcare, education, good paying jobs need to be the mantra if Dems want to oust the orange turd.

I think our message should not be limited to "Trump is an insane, unintelligent corrupt freak"

The Orange US answer to Idi Amin squeaked past that truth in 2016.

Hope was a better message in 2008 than "McCain is a bad guy."

I trust Biden knows that.

was limited to that. His message was very positive about who we are and what we stand for. He want to help us keep what is good about our country.
