00:00
The polls and the sentiment are clear, it is the rematch that nobody wanted, but here we are again,
00:05
Donald Trump versus Joe Biden debating once again. At this Democratic watch party in Los Angeles,
00:11
many people are showing support for Joe Biden, some in a very vigorous way,
00:16
others a little bit more reluctantly.
00:18
I think he is really strong on his policies around just domestic policy,
00:24
he's really strong on his positions in foreign policy, he's been able to back up everything
00:28
that all the decisions that he's been making, and I think Trump is just, again, lying.
00:34
Like many folks, I'm worried about his age, I'm worried about his presence in a room,
00:39
and he is standing up to someone who is a bully. That is what we do on playgrounds,
00:44
in boardrooms, in classrooms, we stand up to those folks who are bad people.
00:50
So I appreciate a president that's willing to get on that stage and tell a bully you're a bully.
00:55
Biden is the clear choice, in my opinion.
00:58
Unfortunately, both are far too old, but I think he's the one with the kind heart,
01:03
and he's the one with a sane point of view, and the one who isn't lying, so yeah.
01:09
It was a history-making debate, a weak and stuttering Joe Biden struggling to respond
01:13
to Donald Trump's lies, lies about January 6th, about abortion, about immigration and the economy.
01:19
No wonder that a majority of Americans say they would have preferred any other candidate
01:23
for this 2024 election.
