Biden old and frail? Nope. President delivers fiery State of the Union his campaign needed

Has anyone seen Sleepy Joe Biden?

I was told the current president is a dementia-addled fool incapable of completing a sentence, but there was a guy standing in his place giving Thursday night’s State of the Union who was fiery, direct, sensible and a far cry from sleepy.

Biden gave one of the strongest election-year State of the Union speeches I’ve witnessed, at a moment when his age and questions of his energy have been nagging narratives in the 2024 presidential campaign.

A fiery Joe Biden delivered the State of the Union address he needed

With Donald Trump effectively nailing down the GOP presidential nomination, this was a moment in which Biden needed to come out swinging, loudly standing up for democracy and drawing a clear line between the two parties and the things they value.

I'm also delighted that there was almost ZERO time spent in the "post-game shows" about an occasional uneven moment. He did have a few "fumfers" as he followed the script on the TelePrompTer, but who cared? I'd guess nobody, except for nitpickers and poor-sport Republicans.

Also, I don't think you win in America by preaching authoritarianism, especially from such a horribly flawed individual like Traitor Trump. It's almost like the GOP is on a suicide mission. Spineless bastards!
