The key distinction between you and Joseph Robinette Biden is that he was delivering the main address on the first night of the DNC. It was characteristically Biden-like. It&#8217;s noteworthy that Biden was assigned to speak on Monday, a slot typically reserved for those whom Democrats felt obligated to feature, even if they didn&#8217;t necessarily want to.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside Biden, who served as a reminder of past electoral setbacks, Hillary Rodham Clinton\u2014the 2016 Democratic nominee\u2014also took the stage. Other notable speakers included far-left politicians such as Georgia Senator Raphael Warnock and Representatives Jasmine Crockett from Texas and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez from New York, along with Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson.<\/p>\n<p>However, none of these individuals are or (hopefully) will ever be president while Joe Biden currently holds that title. This raises questions about why he wasn&#8217;t scheduled to speak later in the week when more Americans would be tuning in for Vice President Kamala Harris&#8217;s acceptance speech.<\/p>\n<p>When he finally spoke: <\/p>\n<p>Joe Biden seemed to lose his train of thought at midnight while discussing how &#8220;The Supreme Court said women aren\u2019t without electrical power.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Yes, that&#8217;s right; it\u2019s easy to see why he won\u2019t be accepting his party\u2019s nomination for a second term later this week. In a disorganized speech reminiscent of why he&#8217;s not being featured prominently during this convention week, he meandered through various points about how Kamala Harris is &#8220;tough&#8221; and how vice presidents often make great presidents.<\/p>\n<p>He began with an emotional moment when his daughter Ashley introduced him at the end of Monday&#8217;s events; tears were shed as he received an extended ovation lasting over four minutes\u2014a response likely tied more to his impending departure from office than genuine enthusiasm for his performance.<\/p>\n<p>Biden then stumbled through familiar slogans like \u201cdemocracy is on the ballot,\u201d despite recent events making such claims seem outdated. He also acknowledged pro-Hamas protesters outside by saying they had valid points\u2014a comment that didn\u2019t resonate well online given their accusations against him regarding genocide.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, much of his speech focused on promoting Kamala Harris&#8217;s campaign and linking her success back to his administration. He claimed choosing her was one of the best decisions he&#8217;d ever made in his career while jokingly referencing their shared history as vice presidents\u2014a joke that fell flat considering current economic struggles many face today.<\/p>\n<p>While this speech may have been better than some previous performances marking what many view as an end to Joe Biden\u2019s political career\u2014largely due to its lack of opposition\u2014it still served as a reminder why he&#8217;s stepping down and not receiving greater prominence at this convention; those four minutes of applause could easily have been interpreted as \u201cgood riddance\u201d by attendees in Chicago&#8217;s United Center<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2327377,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/biden-for-aug.-20-2024.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[3620,7705,35750,32438,35708],"class_list":["post-2327376","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-biden","tag-dnc","tag-emotional-moment","tag-kamala-harris","tag-political-leadership"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/biden-for-aug.-20-2024.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2327376","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2327376"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2327376\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2327377"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2327376"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2327376"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2327376"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
