Biden-Harris Saturday Night speech thread

[Gil Bang 26,019]

can we clean up the clutter on the other threads?

 

I'm watching fox news. They are sucking Joe off more than I expected.  The tone has changed dramatically. 

 

 

Edit.  Early horns game.  I'm drunk

Fuck Donald Trump and fuck Fox News

[closetohumping 17,468]

LFG!!! Great moment.

[G650 14,277]

Let's gooooooooooo

[Rimbo 26,098]

I think there's something wrong with the transmission... my screen keeps getting blurry during Kamala's speech. Anyone else having this issue?

[SmokeyTheBear 5,562]

What a weird road for being a Harris supporter. She was my first pick for Presidential candidate but was befuddled by her campaign performance. Glad to see her up there representing the future of the Democratic party. 

[Loch Ness Monster 3,533]

Fuck Donald Trump

She was the right choice for VP, but not for President. On the other hand, if Joe has health issues or otherwise and needs to step down, she's going to be great.

[Jive Turkey 12,642]

oh shit.  Joe is running out. 

[Rimbo 26,098]

you know why joe biden's like a mushroom?

he's a fun guy

[Mo Horn 8,854]

The best thing about listening to Kamala is knowing there are many, many people who are seething, watching a black woman become speak, who will be the next Vice President of the United States.

I'd rather they be happy about it.

There are many more who are crying tears of joy watching her. The little girls out there seeing her as VP must be special for them.

I would too, and in my better acts I try to understand and empathize with their pain. I'll do that tomorrow. Tonight I celebrate.

God, I love this guy. He's so much like Reagan in his personality (if not his political beliefs).

It's like if you've had a piece of shit car with no AC, a busted window, weird electrical gremlins, shit coming out of the seats, a smell that never goes away, etc, and you just slide into a clean, detailed, certified pre-owned Toyota Camry and it's like a million bucks.

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19,142]

This is the first speech by a President or President-elect I have watched in its entirety since November 2016.

[capnamerca 572]

Good lord, an adult is back in the room. This is epic. 

[ultimaton 2,982]

Oh yeah, this is what a President is supposed to sound like. It was only four years of Trump, but it sure felt like twenty. 

[Woland 749]

Will no one think of Space Force?

[Ted Lange 16,142]

So what are the chances that after hearing all the positive press Joe gets for this speech, Trump decides to do an acceptance speech too?
 

100% or even higher?

[FORTY NINE TO ZERO 2,652]

Biden is exactly what we need right now.   
 

Not perfect, but comforting.    

[Michael Knight 12,995]

What a different tone

[Ted Lange 16,142]

Love the Tom Petty!

I had it on before the speech started, and yeah, they were kissing up to Biden more than I expected as well.

Trump must have been livid.

A toast to the members of Surly. Here's to a new direction for our country, I wouldn't want to undertake it with a better class of sarcastic asses. Cheers and Hook 'Em!

Little girls? I’m 42 and it was very emotional to watch.

[bad_teammate 13,224]

Joe's a good guy.

[BrazilHorn 6,633]

It is so nice to hear a President that makes their speech about the country vs themselves. Just so nice to have a fucking adult coming to be in charge of the country.

 

[Mo Horn 8,854]

It feels like a huge weight has just been lifted. and a new day had dawned.

[sachick 1,189]

Exactly. Not my first pick, or even second. But I think the President we need right now.

[Loch Ness Monster 3,533]

I cried a little. That was beautiful.

[thepop 4,409]

Is that Hunter on stage? Doesn't seem like a monster.

Yep.

Joe doesn't give a FUCK what anyone thinks about his family. His #1 trait in my mind. That's a real man.

[Planet Houston 4,930]

Goddamn this feels good!!!!!!!

YOLO! Been a long fucking 4 years and I’m a WASP that suffers no daily discrimination.

I’m celebrating for all those across the country that have been looked down upon and suffered under this cruel administration. 
 

Ridin with Biden! 🇺🇸 🗽 🦅 

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19,142]

Me too. I also got choked up during Joe’s speech.

My God. This is right on the button.

Apparently the Coldplay that played after the speech was Beau Biden's favorite song and it played at Beau's funeral.

You should see his browser search history....... I kid, I kid.

It's gonna be nice having a president that sounds like a president and not a moronic man-child.
