This is a very enlightening paragraph re: trumps debate strategy to make Joe look weak. [View all]

[Heartstrings]

THIS IS A VERY SMART OBSERVATION from Barry Snyder's daughter, perhaps explaining why BIDEN might have seemed weaker than he should have last night, and showing Biden's hidden strength. Cut and pasted with Barry's permission from Facebook.

"My daughter just made an interesting observation after hearing from a friend who stutters. That person noted that one of the challenges for someone who stutters is to have time to respond. That is to say, Trump’s interruptions and talking over Biden were a deliberate strategy to try to make Biden stutter before a national audience. Rebecca’s friend was aware of Biden closing his eyes and using visualization techniques to prevent stuttering in responding to Trump. So it’s worse than the President of the U.S. being unhinged. It’s a deliberate attempt to appeal to the worst in people- making fun of someone with a disability, making that person seem weak- as a way to win votes. It’s a tried and true approach for Trump. So go easy on Biden; he used a lot of energy not giving the mob the subject of mockery Trump’s strategists were aiming for as their prime objective. And teach your children well. It’s not that hard to tell right from wrong, what constitutes leadership, what it means to be an adult, no matter how many adults have forgotten and are happy to hold up as a model someone who is little more, and a lot worse, than a schoolyard bully."

You’ve got this, Joe!
