Calm, reassuring, detailed, and able to get in some
digs without being too combative.

IOW, totally presidential!

The way he totally laughed off Pompeo's ridiculous statement that he expected a smooth transition to a second Trump administration was such a power play. And repeatedly assuring the press/public that he doesn't need PDPs or the GSA money because his transition planning is moving along and will continue to move along just fine without them was the smartest move ever. Bottom line, you guys can beat on your chests and crow about nonsense and it's not gonna change a damn thing. We won. You didn't. And we will have everything we need to be prepared on day 1.

Did Biden call anyone names, or recount a story about some toughguy (the kind who doesn't ever cry) approaching him with tears in his eyes and calling him "Sir" and thanking him for something he didn't do?
