Former Vice President Joe Biden addresses George Floyd protests from Philadelphia - 6/2/2020

Hard to argue that the content and tone of this speech was vastly different from what we’ve been hearing from the president. A refreshing blend of humility, empathy, compassion and hope.

[sundayholm]

This is how a President addresses a nation that is suffering from pain and fear. Go Joe!!!

[erinbutler]

Nice try trolls. This is the most presidential thing that has happened in 3 and a half years.

[stanthemafia]

I haven’t heard a good speech out of America since Obama left office until now

[nickdanger]

Biden completely knocked it out of the park! What an absolute joy to listen to an intelligent, competent mind share his thoughts. As much as I want him to bash trump, he held the high moral ground, and that counts for a lot. We can vote for class, or trash. Is there really any question?

[jayarbetman]

very good speech. Quite Presidential. Too bad the current POTUS is so immature and unable to sound neither Presidential or simply like a good citizen.

[CaitlinH]

THIS is the kind of unifying message our country needed to hear today. Thank you, Joe, for providing us with hope.

[tcfmarch]

More speeches, Joe. It was so refreshing to listen to your positivity...Thank you for the serenity of your voice. Very calming...

[ryangreene]

i'll take a career politician from the other party over that disgusting circus in front of the white house i watched yesteday.

[Catherine]

I want to see Biden debate Trump
Please

[wdmadsen]

He is the hope to beat the tyranny of evil in our nation.

[jodylrugenstein]

This speech is so good I sent it to all of my Family.
Joe sounds like a President of the United States of America!

[cellphonerepeater]

What a stark difference to that thing we have in white house right now

[HeyShotgun]

I’ve actually had a mental break from how far the country has fallen.

[Infinite_eight]

I have really missed how well all the other US presidents spoke in their public speeches. Trump is still a nightmare to listen to. I hope this guy wins in November.

[ransomholland]

Thank you so much for words that can heal the Nation.

[PC-oihk]

He need to be the President of the UNITED States of America. We need his experience. We need him!!!

[jojojam]

You know, Joe Biden would not be the ideal president, I have my reservations. But, he would be a blessing compared to Trump the Destroyer.

[San]

Very presidential speech. I didn't think I cared for this type of thing but hearing this speech makes me hopeful.

[jimmaxwell]

Well, that was an extremely Presidential-looking turn up there. For good or ill, he definitely looks the part in a way the guy currently impacting the Oval Orifice does not and never has.
