How embarrasing! Can his handlers please keep him HOME.

[JustFun]

All I heard is a bunch of platitudes and feel good statements. How he going to accomplish these goals seems to missing. A worthless president.

[TheAmberella]

did he just threaten us with another pandemic?

[whyami]

I can't take these people serious anymore.

[stephenharris]

If Joe is so concerned about rising sea level, why did he buy a 15 million dollar home on beach front property? If Joe is so worried about covid, why he has let 1.9 million illegal immigrants untested into the USA?

The majority are awake, looks like its force now you rule!.. I believe the elite need prayers, not the civilians of the world. Just like that movie a bugs life, we have more ants, then you have grasshoppers.

About half way, he starts slowing down, and his speech starts slurring more. Hunter didn't hook him up enough!

[sallyanndahl]

Go Joe, you are the perfect puppet for these puppeteers. A job well done.

[Sayuri]

He left out unicorns farting rainbows.

Absolute disgrace and disgusting failure. The world will forever laugh at our country thanks to this.
