Episode notes

- This suggests he doesn't believe the truth is as dangerous as he claims.
Biden's Communication Challenges
- Biden's communication skills appear weak, hindering his portrayal as a strong leader.
- His delivery is scattered, and he struggles to connect sentences, impacting his effectiveness.
Biden's Media Attacks
- Biden frequently attacks the media, echoing Trump's tactics.
- This defensiveness suggests a lack of confidence and a struggle to control the narrative.
