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.

Biden is a scumbag and always has been. I’m beginning to think Cupp is too.

Oh Yes, he is such a good provider, he has feathered his family’s nest quite well over the years.

He probably gave Maxine Waters lessons on how to build a family that is latched onto a party teat and doesn’t let go, no matter how corrupt and unstable they are revealed to be.

Many Establishment Republicans are socially liberal globalists.

Hey D Cupp, you are voting for a wisp of smoke.

Joe is Von Hindenburg

SO you think someone who ruined an innocent man's life by repeatedly saying that he was at fault in an accident that was caused by a member of Biden's own family and stating that he was drunk when he was sober is a "Good person"?

O-kay.

Remind me to never trust your moral compass.

He got a man fired that was investigating his crackhead son for taking Millions from Foreign Countries.

What a guy.

Cupp is truly stupid. I know an adorable woman, a much better person than Biden, but she also has a serious case of Down syndrome and other issues. And in no way would she be able to handle the job.

No, Joe Biden is not a good person. He is corrupt. And I have heard him trash people and lie about them.

Then you do not believe Tara Reade. She would not agree with you. Jimmy Carter was a very nice person, but he was the second worst president in history. Barack Obama was the worst, and perhaps we can agree that Obama was not a nice person.

They believe that they will control the Republican Party again, and that the America First conservatives they betrayed will stand shoulder to shoulder with them, and obediently vote for the next Bush / McCain / Romney.

He has personal flaws to be sure, but those don’t include selling out the country to the highest bidder and I don’t think he gave away national security secrets the way some of his accusers have certainly done!

That’s like saying I only want Marines who are good people going into battle. The presidency is not a place for sissy’s. And don’t give me any Sissy’s Lives Matter crap!

The author seems to have exhausted every possible reason to support Dementia Joe, then succumbed to the final pathetic reason she could muster - - he’s a good guy.

Spit.

I'm still trying to find the meme that the Ds made, thinking it was the cat's meow..
(it had Biden riding a torpedo and said something like, "Joepedo"!!! (emphasis mine))..

They shot themselves (and they never could figure out why we were laughing so hard!)
