It's a far less offensive epithet than Trump uses every single day. Moreover, Biden did the country and the world a huge favor by defeating a wannabe autocrat who doesn't believe in democracy and has publicly called for the termination of the U.S. Constitution (and it was Trump's autocratic desires and trashing of our country's laws and norms that compelled a reluctant Biden to run). For that we owe him our gratitude and respect.

Can you imagine Biden tweeting something like this (or misspelling a word like "weak?"

In the picture of Trump's team, look on their faces is not tense as on Obama's team picture, so yes a photo op for sure. Besides from the pissedoff look on Trump's face tells me he is upset he is not the center of attention.

Some of us have been wondering why Bragg only charged Trump with the Daniels and McDougal funding...why not the banking and tax fraud asset valuation cases. Now we know why...when Trump whent in and actually answered seven hours of Letiria James questions last week in the civil case. Now Bragg has all that information from Trump's answers to James that he can use in the bank and tax fraud criminal cases. Why did Trump not invoke the 5th with James as he did before? Because in this deposition, civil trial jurors can draw an adverse inference of the defendant's guilt in a civil case where the defendant invokes the fifth...which is not allowed in criminal trials.

And now Alvin Bragg has all he needs to go after Trump for criminal bank fraud, and criminal tax fraud.

Made my day. Thanks, Ike. Lardass the Liar just can't stop incriminating himself.

I'm glad Joe went to Ireland so he could let us all know that he "may be Irish" but he's "not stupid".

I completely understand his affinity towards Ireland. I feel the same way. I've been there several times and have found a warmth and friendliness towards Americans I haven't experienced elsewhere in the ~60 countries I've been to.

At least he didn't pull a stunt like Mike Pence did when he visited Ireland as VP. He obsequiously stayed at a Trump property in Doonbeg, 180 miles away from his meetings in Dublin (and on the opposite coast), racking up an additional (and unnecessary) $600K in travel expenses just to fatten Trump's wallet.

This reeks of self-serving hypocritical irony from the preeminent civics ignoramus.
