    He needs to secure the Senior vote or he has no chance either in the primaries or even if he wins the primary winning the general.

    So strategically I expect we will hear,

    - tough China war talk. Nostalgic cold war Boomers and Seniors will eat it up.
    - Social Security and Medicare talk.
    - Inflation
    - Appeal to Millenials on student debt and loans.

    If he goes too far left to the lunatic fringe he is finished politically. He will be written off to where people stop listening and will look around for another Democrat.

    I am of a mind that I would have nuked China by now.

    Explain why is that wrong?

    Whoopi Goldberg: Biden Needs to Address GOP ‘Freaks’ Trying to ‘Change History’

    https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2023...hange-history/

    PAM KEY 7 Feb 2023

    Whoopi Goldberg told her co-hosts Tuesday on ABC’s “The View” that during the State of the Union address, President Joe Biden should call out Republicans who she accuses of trying to “change history.”

    Goldberg said, “What I need from him desperately is I need for him to say to all those brown kids who adults keep saying your history isn’t important, ‘I’m your president, I’m telling you it is. I’m your president. I’m telling you that I don’t accept the erasure of black and brown people from America’s history because there is not American history without these black and brown people.’ That’s what I want to hear him say tonight because one of the things that he knows is that woman, in particular, and particularly brown women, have worked their butts off to make sure that he became the president.”

    Referring to Govs Ron DeSantis (R-FL) and Greg Abbott (R-TX), Goldberg said, “I need to hear him say, ‘This bonehead in Florida and in Texas is out of step with America. He’s out of step with who we are as a nation because there is no nation without us.’ I need to hear him say that as my president. I need to know that he’s aware that there are freaks out there who are trying to change history, and he’s not going to stand for it. That’s what I want from you, Joe.”

    I have no interests watching this state of union of lies.

    I will give a prediction. Biden will stutter out a platitude. He will get a five minute standing ovation. He will stutter out another meaningless platitude and get another 5 minute standing ovation. He will stutter out a lie and get a five minute standing ovation. This will go on for an excruciatingly looooong time. It's a toss up between listening to him or commiting suicide with a Pfizer jab. I don't know what is worse.

    Millions dead both sides for what? I really do not understand your blood lust, over a $#@!ing balloon that likely would have passed through anyway if they signed onto open skies, which the Russians did for years.

    What?

    You think it's over a $#@!ing balloon???

    The Chinese Communist party, in collusion with traitors, moles and enemies of the people within our own government, deliberately and with malice aforethought, created, refined, increased the performance of and then released, also with malice aforethought, a biological warfare pathogen that has killed over a million American citizens and millions more globally, and is still killing to this day.

    The facilities that create these pathogens must be destroyed.

    Nations that protect these facilities must be held accountable by extreme force.
