Not that monster who wouldn’t know a human emotion if it bit him on the ass. This carries over into everything. Negotiations, state visits, policy, the press, Congress, everything.

Joe has made decisions I have disagreed with. I don’t for a second believe he has done it cavalierly or without believing he was doing the right thing. And he has changed his mind over time. I appreciate that. And these days simple human caring is something we need in order to heal the rifts this monster has created.

Thank you for the post. I needed it. And not just because of Joe. Because of us.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
