Amazing. I respect Joe Biden and think he had a pretty good term overall, but stuff like this shows just what's been lacking.
On a related note, please let Trump be dumb enough to accept a debate with Kamala.
Old Biden is too civil for Trump in general.
He comes from the era when politicians were civil to each other even if they vehemently disagreed. Well before Newt Gingrich started characterizing Democrats as evil.
Plus Harris is from California and we have a pretty good vicious streak on a cultural level. Its just not really highlighted cause it usually manifests in weird or quiet ways. A good example is that in my area quite a few people became anti-anti-gay marriage because the Mormons bussed in folks from out of state for some rally which was pro prop 8(?). The insult came about because fuck folks who dont even live in California affecting our internal politics, Californian pseudo nationalism at its finest.
If Trump were a Palestinian child he'd be all over it though.
Joe Biden is "civil" in the most meaningless, useless sense of the war. I don't know why people are being precious about his legacy.
Preach. Having someone call Trump on his bullshit and is so god damn refreshing. Biden just wanted to brag about his record. He did a lot, that’s great, but the campaign needs to highlight what Trump’s policies are and what is at stake.
It's so sad these elections are no longer about what policies each candidate promises to apply if elected but about attacking the other candidate.
But the Democrats have to play by the current rules. Taking the moral high ground on the campaign trail was not going to get them elected. One can argue that the moral obligation is not to let Trump and his cronies win so that more reasonable policies can be put in place.

'Twas always thus.
When we first got cable TV and access to US channels, I was shocked that US campaigns were almost entirely "my opponent is a crook, so vote for me" attack ads. At the time, Canadian politics was still biased towards making promises (that the politicians never kept).
That was 1981.
criticising trump seems to play less of a role than progress in her campaign.
Honestly, I'd be just as fine with him running with his tail between his legs. Tells you all you need to know either way.
Only if she gets lots of news coverage calling him out for running away.
Then people will just say he was too scared... I think buying already agreeing to the second one he kind of shot himself in the foot.
