Biden tells Howard graduates hope is ‘shadowed’ by fear, hate but can still win
Breitbart ^ | 05/13/2023 | Jared Gans

President Biden said hope is “shadowed” by fear, violence and hate but asserted that it can still win if people speak up to oppose those forces in his commencement address at Howard University on Saturday.

Biden, the seventh sitting president to give the commencement address at the historically Black university, told graduates that he hoped hatred was losing the battle after former President Obama was elected and reelected as the country’s first Black president. But he said hatred “never goes away” and only “hides under the rocks.”

I HATE it when dumbasses such as SloJoe and his thugs make it all about some “inherent quality” that a person has NO CONTROL over, such as race or gender!

I am not a big fan of the Reverend M.L. King, but he got it right when he said that we should be “. . . judged on the content of our character!”

WE ARE ABLE TO CONTROL THE CONTENT OF OUR CHARACTER AND OUR ACTIONS!

And, we should be held to account for them!

The last time a national leader harangued his nation with the kind of rhetoric Joe uses, it was under the slogan, “Deutschland, erwache!” It didn’t end well for that nation.

How stupid does Joe think America is? And if it is as stupid as he thinks it is, it will not end well for us.

Joe is the most unAmerican president we have ever had.

Hope is shadowed by Joe’s illegal immigrants.

Good luck finding work, Howard grads! You get what you vote for.

Biden did not say that. But it is believable only because he is so demented that it is believable.

Boy, that sounds like a real snoozer of a speech packed full of cliches and platitudes - the kind of speech Biden has been giving his whole life.

It would seriously sicken me if I had to listen to the lying, pandering, a-hole give me a speech. People get so wrapped up in the “I have to walk” thing like it matters. Screw that. I wouldn’t even show up.

It was a double jeopardy hostage situation, they had to attend in order to get their diplomas but they didn’t get their diplomas until they turned in their caps and gowns.

Thanks for telling me that biden did not say that. There is nothing he could say that would surprise me.

That narrows it down to half of USA presidents. Trump is rudely excluded by this Irish web page (because he has zero alcohol in his blood?), but quite obviously also has some Irish genetics:
