Why does his speech look like it is AI generated?

[MrSki]

Omg. He said he will bring home hostages and keep American soldiers safe. Afghanistan anyone?

[Aaliyahbaby]

Did he just say the immigration rate went down ?

[jr]

He means Pelosi kicked him out😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[rolandgutierrez]

He actually said, " Border crossings are Lower TOday than the Previous administration Left office ! " 1:09 : 40 That is NOT True !

[hohum]

"America is not at war anywhere in the world" 😂😂😂

[PFCD]

I don't feel sorry for him at all because he didn't give a damn about me my family or my friends. In the end he got the manipulation from his party that he dished out. The worst president in modern history.

[apocaly]

Kamala never said what she will do tho...how is she running without telling her agenda smh

[robbynelson]

Bring back transparency and stop censorship.

[sleepsweetasmr]

so when does his speech start? 🙄 someone give me a time stamp please, it's lost in all the propaganda lol

[Im.Jaystone]

this reporting is so cringe oh my dear god

[Ronson-qdvf]

He should never use the word "Honesty".

[jannor]

Is it just my eyes, or was something weird about his eyes??

[rachaelsmith]

If the people rule…then we can’t vote for the party that intentionally skipped the primary.

[Caocao]

“The nation held its breath as it watched President Biden.” Only because the nation knows how gassy Joe’s been these last four years.

[Joe-veyw]

Don't let the door hit you on the way out

[antonyware]

«it’s not about me ». Of course not Joe

[DenzelWellington-tfzf]

Did he just say border crossing are at an all time low compared to last presidency haha

[reccocon]

This only took 4 days to piece together between the hrs of 10am - 4:00pm, video taped at Tyler Perry's Studios, GA Notice it wasn't "Live" tv.
