I’m voting for Biden because he’s a good person: Why that matters
New York Daily News ^ | 18 August 2020 | S.E. Cupp

Posted on 08/19/2020 5:01:19 PM PDT by KC_Lion

On the Democratic National Convention’s second night, Joe Biden’s wife, Jill, took America inside her longtime marriage to the presidential nominee.

These things usually strike me as schmaltzy and inauthentic — pre-packaged montages about political leaders and their families, their personal trials and triumphs, their “normal” lives, old photos of first starting out.

But as much as we know Joe — indeed, he’s been in public office on and off for the past 50 years — we saw more of the Bidens than ever before. The life they rebuilt after the tragic deaths of Joe’s first wife and daughter, their support of one another through decades of failure and successes, the agonizing loss of another child, their commitment to giving back. And whatever you think of Biden’s politics, the bottom line is clear: They’re good people.

That might not always be a leading priority in presidential politics. Being a fundamentally good person wasn’t enough to keep Jimmy Carter in the White House. Being a fundamentally bad person wasn’t enough to stop Richard Nixon from winning the White House. America’s warmed to George W. Bush’s goodness since leaving office. And it seems to have accepted Bill Clinton’s patent awfulness. Voters compartmentalize.

Sarah, Sarah, Sarah...

He's a serial groper and says insensitive things about people.

He only seems like a "good person" because he doesn't remember his past anymore, so he walks around with a blank smile all day long.

Trump makes all the pseudo conservatives reveal themselves.

He certainly does.

Who say he’s a “good person”?? He’s been in government for 40 years and did nothing but enrich himself and his family. He’s corrupt and a serial liar.

What the Hell has happened to this woman?

She used to be one of the great voices of small-l libertarianism. I enjoyed her work in the 2000s.

Doesn't she realizes that if Biden somehow does win, she and the rest of the Never Trumpers will be cast aside like trash? Why would the Democrats need her or idiots like Steve Schmidt or Bill Kristol, if they retake D.C.?

I'm so glad Trump won and completely exposed these back-stabbing mofos.

The fact that the Biden family has gotten rich off of connections to Senator and then V.P. Biden doesn’t bother you at all? How about the fact that good man Biden has to send his wife out to fight his battles for him? And that he thinks that he’s “Joe Biden’s husband?”

And how about Kamala? Is she a good person, too? Because if, God forbid, Biden were to win, she would be President.

Wait. She must have him confused with a different Joe Biden.

On Red Eye, her main thing was saying she was the atheist conservative who supported gay marriage.

Biden...good person

The only way anyone can believe that is if they are as demented as he is.

A guy who uses the deaths of family members to his advantage. Yeah, that's a 'good person'.

Just like Tom Mauser.

I’m voting for Trump because he’s a good President and because both members of the Rat Party ticket are depraved Maoists.

Thanks. It's absolutely mind-blowing insane.

These Never Trumpers and people like Nicolle Wallace and Cupp really believe that if Trump loses, they're going to once again be held as credible conservative voices, demanding that conservatives hold their noses for RINOs. It just ain't going to happen, ever again.

If Biden wins, the Left will be out for blood. The very first people who are going to be cut loose are the Never Trumpers in the GOP establishment. They will not get invites to the fancy cocktail parties, because the Left is going purge the Hell out of everyone who opposes them. Guys like Romney and Kasich are just going to be ignored.

Cupp is just a total idiot and a sell-out who sold out for the D.C. limelight.
