Observations Over Joe Biden's 'Soul of a Nation' Speech

 I sat this morning and watched the roughly 25-minute Philadelphia speech.  Some observations:

1.  The days where Biden could deliver a peppy and highly enthusiastic speech (probably as late as the 1990s) are long gone.  It was a kind of speech that VP Harris should have given.

2.  It was just odd how Biden walked to the podium with his wife....then she stepped off to the left.

3.  Lighting?  Well...it was somewhat dim.  Maybe somewhat intentional....maybe accidental?  I don't know.  It was like they had a 40-watt bulb over him.

4.  Scratchy throat thing?  Well....yeah, one could notice that.

5.  Maa-gaa chatter?  It was a funny pronunciation that he tried to use for MAGA folks. How many times did utter the phrase?  I stopped counting at ten.

6.  The F-Joe Biden chants?  Well....you could hear them toward the end.

7.  For 2022, there hasn't been that many speeches made by the President and so it's hard to grade this one.  I think a lot of people would suggest that 'beacon-to-the-world' status, that he uttered, has come and gone.  

My humble guess?  You might see one more speech like this prior to the end of 2022. It'll probably come just prior to November's mid-term.

I have zero interest in politicians.
Back at the beginning of this current bunch of nincompoopery, I counted at least five (5) biden impersonators.
* I noticed their hairlines were all over the place
* I noticed their ear heights were up, down, back, all over the place.
* Their lucidity was wildly beyond the capacity of Glorious Leader chinesium joe biden.
But most telling:
* The forehead divot was sometimes there... mostly though, few of the impersonators opted for the cosmetic surgery to duplicate that dent.

Just to verify, we are talking about the fellow who sold his driveway, right?
