President Biden came storming out of the gate at the State Of The Union and destroyed Donald Trump.
Biden called out Trump on Russia, “It wasn’t long ago when the Republican president named Ronald Reagan thundered Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall. Now, now my predecessor is, a former Republican president tells Putin, quote, do whatever the hell you want. That’s a quote. The former president said that bowing down to a Russian leader. I think it’s outrageous, dangerous, and unacceptable.”

Biden nailed Trump’s election lies:
Many of you were here on the darkest of days. We all saw with their own eyes the insurrectionists were not patriots, they had come to stop the peaceful transfer of power, to overturn the will of the people, January 6th lies about the 2020 election and the plots to steal the election post the gravest threat to U.S. democracy since the Civil War. But they failed. America stood! America stood strong, and democracy prevailed. Let’s be honest, the threat to democracy must be defended. My predecessor and some of you here seek to carry the truth about January 6th. I will not do that. This is a moment to speak the truth and to bury the lies. Here’s the simple truth. You can’t love your country only when you win.
