What a joke. So out of touch and for him to say he wouldn't change anything speaks volumes as to why everyone is saying Let's Go Brandon!

It’s like running a company into bankruptcy and blaming your customers and all of your employees for your failure.

[WuFluChan]

The only thing anyone took away is that it’s scary af that this guy is “in charge” of this country

[mikefratz]

I cringe when I think we have 3 more years of this administration. Don't blame me I voted for Trump

[davidpuddy]

He did a lot of talking but he didn't say anything

[hankhill]

He ain't the one suffering from his own policies.

He may have taken dozens of questions, but he didn't answer dozens of questions.

What an inspiration in unity on the one year anniversary of his historic win.(said no one ever)

[MajorAnthonyNelson]

My entire family voted for Joe Biden and after watching his speech not addressing any of the problems or solutions to fix the out-of-control inflation and spiking gas prices we will vote straight Republican in November for the first time in our lives. We are all registered democrats

*Even heavily edited, Biden appears utterly incompetent.*

We can't see the dislike bar, but we know it's 10x as much as the likes!

[SuperDave]

Not a single comment below that is defending this president.

[johnnybamable]

How can you defend the disaster you have created? Arrogant much?

[stevesplace]

The media's hard hitting questions:

CNN: Mr. President what is you favorite color?
joe: Pancakes.

ABC: Mr. President, what can you tell us about the vaccinations?
joe: Nearly one billion Americans have been vaccinated. That's over 500 thousand. (He really said that)
ABC: Mr. President, don't you mean almost 500 million?
joe: Ahh, c'mon man. You know what I mean.

MSNBC: Mr. President have you visited the southern border?
joe: Yes, I found the Canadians, uh, well, you know, welcoming.
MSNBC: Mr. President, the SOUTHERN border.
joe: jmphnumburarlal well, you know what I mean, man.

PBS: Mr. President, we love you!
joe: ahh, c'mon, man.

[bobbyhill]

"he took dozens of questions" the fact that has to be said and then exagurated means they know how incompetent he is

[ammodude]

Marathon! He did not talk about Inflation, COVID, High Crime Rate, Opening up the economy/schools; just the vetoing bill and Russia.

[robertwoodhouse]

He was asked about his son Hunter's existing dealings in China and acted like he did not hear the question. Remember he promised his son's overseas ventures would end when he took office. They didn't

[GhostRiderSpiritOfVengeance]

It makes me sad and so discouraged that our politics have turned to "red team" vs "blue team" where people devote to one 'team' that can do no wrong. We should remain critical of everyone and hold them accountable. We honestly deserve better than what we've had in ages.

[RPG-ohyf]

Just wow. There are no words. #mostpopularpresidentever #letsgobrandon

[bingbong]

Joe has already forgotten his Afghanistan tragedy was the most consequential instance in terms of war and peace since WW2.
