It couldn't be more clear - this election is a choice between hope and despair.

Allowing comments? That’s brave CNN
Edit: Ridiculous how many comments got taken out already cuz it goes against CNN agenda. Mine only didn’t cuz it was vague. Sad.

[tanciemette]

Boy, he looks younger, he no longer has to carry all the weight on his shoulders.

[alvinliao]

If Biden performed this good on that debate stage last time, he would surely secure his second term.

[coreyadonis]

It was a great night but the only thing CNN can comment about is how late Joe Biden came on ridiculous

[rackoblue]

What's amazing is all the nasty comments here. I'd hate to see how you treat your elderly parents, veterans, and war heroes.

Imagine Trump resigns due to his cognitive decline ... Exactly, that’s impossible.

There was more class on that stage in one night than the RNC could muster up in an entire convention.

The amount of damage these people have done in such a short time will go down in history.

Ladies, get yourself a husband that talks about you the way Joe talks about Jill. That's a really deep love.

[w.p.innman]

Whatever opinions you have of him, may it be personal or his political stance . You cannot deny the fact that Joe Biden is a wonderful human being compared to the one in the opposite aisle. Its fact and its undisputable

Funny how, unlike Trump, he didn’t talk about Hannibal Lecter, talk shit about America, or quote Hitler accidentally. Biden spoke about hope and love for this country

[benglhly]

God bless this man - he will be remembered as the most consequential president in us history to this point!

[WilliamVega-ctqw]

It’s so good and refreshing to hear an educated man speaking logical and with common sense regardless if you like him or not. The other guy just rambles with hatred and lies without ever making a point or making anyone feel like there is hope.

What a beautiful hug. Thank you so much, Biden, for your time, loyalty, kindness, love, and most of all duty to the USA. A true president with a wonderful vocabulary skill.

[lifeisatrip]

Joe's a great man. Unlike one whiner that comes to mind.

[thesjd]

When Donald Duck sees this he is gonna flip.

[SleazyDonny]

So proud America chose Biden in 2020. A genuine good guy.

[xbdybce]

What he did was unimaginable. He deserves the praise and thanks of this grateful nation. Thank you, Joe.

Anyone noticed how the Democrats meetings are full of positivity, while the Republicans ones are full of hate and aggressivity?
