"Even though it's hard, you're never alone."

Quayle म्हणाले...

Christ taught us to love our neighbor but more importantly to even love our enemies.

But Christ has fallen out of favor in our modern society. Some don't believe he should be mentioned in polite society, and others downright scoff at him.

Elmo said love our neighbor.
Ah, that feels much better; we can all accept Elmo.
Elmo doesn't tell us we must love our enemies.

Original Mike म्हणाले...

I find being asked "how I'm doing" to be really annoying.

Jaq म्हणाले...

Pedophiles of a feather.

Yancey Ward म्हणाले...

Which Biden flunky wrote that insipid tweet?

Meade म्हणाले...

“Which Biden flunky wrote that insipid tweet?”

Probably Bigbird. Brain.

Joe Smith म्हणाले...

"Even though it's hard, you're never alone."

Especially when somebody's entire arm is up your ass...

rcocean म्हणाले...

Had Trump tweeted this, you can imagine the storm of scorn and mockery complete with endless Late Nite comic jokes. Perhaps Jon stewart would even raise an eyebrow at the camera.

But its Biden, so the dumbness and complete fakery is just yawned at.

Owen म्हणाले...

Yancey: "Which Biden flunky wrote that insipid tweet?"

ChapGPT?

Biden himself is just a hand puppet, why would his minions be anything more?

n.n म्हणाले...

Biden's requiem for Afghanistan, Americans outside of Martha's Vineyard, and demos-cracy aborted in sanctuary States. Let us bray.

BG म्हणाले...

My first thought was,”He didn’t type that.”

Meade म्हणाले...

“I find being asked "how I'm doing" to be really annoying.“

Yes. Even more annoying is having my local elected government officeholder batch emailing me to “check on my elderly neighbors and ask how they’re doing” and to “be careful when out walking on ice.”

iowan2 म्हणाले...

Why is this on the mind of the President of the United States
The Federal Government was never structured to delve into such things.

I want someone to explain to the people why the federal govt is concerned about this.

Yes I hated Clinton and his 'I feel your pain' pandering, also. Just do the enumerated stuff competently. That is more than enough to keep all the worker bees busy.

Rafe म्हणाले...

See, the problem with this treacly type of sentiment is…

A) addressing perceived loneliness is well outside the job of government, and
B) I want to be left alone.

This is tweet is so very, very Democrat in all of its galling arrogant assumptions. LEAVE ME BE, social bureaucracy!

I think we have the same alderperson.

Bob Boyd म्हणाले...

Fact Check

President Biden told Americans, "You're never alone."

Intelligence and technology experts rate this statement: True.

Gusty Winds म्हणाले...

Are Democrats courting the 5-year-old and under vote now?

ga6 म्हणाले...

Do I see a few white stains on the bottom hem of the elmo puppet?

M Jordan म्हणाले...

Biden has pulled this kind of crap his entire life. He’s a nasty man who knows how to smile at just right time. It’s a gift, but a dark one.

tim maguire म्हणाले...

Meh. I'm not bothered by the whole "talking to a puppet" thing that has some people riled up on twitter. However, it is insipid twaddle.

Trump was a good president, but not someone I could be proud of in the White House; Biden's a petty nasty demented old fool who is also a bad president. If those are my choices, I'll take Trump. (Although, ironically, Trump, much like Biden today, did wreck the country with China's help.)

Michael K म्हणाले...

Well, we can assume Biden is never alone. Who would change his diaper ?

rehajm म्हणाले...

It looks like they co-opted a random Elmo tweet to make it look like an endorsement. Good thing Elmo is not as vindictive as musical artists…

Skeptical Voter म्हणाले...

Simply put--that is insulting.

Biden and Elmo are eating ice cream from the same puppy dish.

Chick म्हणाले...

Joe! You are president of the united states of america. What are you talking about?

Mason G म्हणाले...

"Even though it's hard, you're never alone."

Ignoring the country's borders will do that.

To which I answer;
Not good. The giant octopus that lives under my bed keeps waking me up in the middle of the night.
Or
Piss off.

Butkus51 म्हणाले...

Whats hard?

Meade म्हणाले...

“I think we have the same alderperson.“

Yeah? And I believe I’m more elderly than you, Original Mike. So get over here, bring me a pot roast and shovel my ice. It’s the LAW!

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...

The husk-puppet hiding behind a fuzz puppet.
perfect.

Biden does not care about anyone.

PM म्हणाले...

Deep Thoughts redux.

Temujin म्हणाले...

I love when Joe talks about 'neighbors'.
Red Biden curses out 225,000,000 Americans.

mikee म्हणाले...

Nice to see that the interns get a chance to make Joe's tweets once in a while, instead of his regular Public Relations folk. Has anyone ever asked a pol or celeb if they, themselves, personally, wrote and uploaded a social media post, rather than their hired messaging service?

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...

does biden care about the human tracking at open border?
Abused women and children?
drugs pouring in?
Illegal entrants?
US citizens?

No no no no no no no no.

wendybar म्हणाले...

PUKE!!

Enigma म्हणाले...

Sesame Street is literally state media. PBS has periodically run 4th of July fireworks shows with photo bombing by Sesame Street puppets as they "enjoy" a state-sponsored music concert and state-sponsored fireworks show.

Elmo should have had a conversation with a Mr. POTATUS head toy...puppets of a feather flock together...

wendybar म्हणाले...

PUKE!!

Leland म्हणाले...

Unless you are a family of a slain service member in Syria, in which case you must first fill out paperwork before the President reaches out to you. Until then, POTUS is being with Elmo.

Night Owl म्हणाले...

So, Biden watches Sesame Street. Why am I not surprised?

But seriously, who thought this was a good idea? The jokes just write themselves. (Nowadays, jokes have to write themselves since there are no comedians with the guts to write any about this parody of a presidency.)

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...

tracking = trafficking

Original Mike म्हणाले...

"Yeah? And I believe I’m more elderly than you, Original Mike. So get over here, bring me a pot roast and shovel my ice. It’s the LAW!"

Yeah, I'll get right on that, Meade…

Sebastian म्हणाले...

"you're never alone"

He says that as if it's a good thing.

I want to be left alone. Especially by Joe and Big Brother.

Iman म्हणाले...

Elmo akbar!

Rit म्हणाले...

Meade said: We have a POTUS who thinks of us and speaks to us as if we are 3 year-olds.

Perhaps, but that's basically because we have a POTUS who on his better days has the mental capacity and emotional stability of a 3 year-old.

Iman म्हणाले...

In Biden’s case, Lamb Chop would be more appropriate.

Rosalyn C. म्हणाले...

Is Dr.Jill Biden responsible for this one?

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...

Heh - Temujin.
That image should be front and center for the GOP this year. (if they were smart)
Yes- Biden wuvs you...

'cept - Make America Great Again folks- not so much. Millions of insurrectionist deplorables pollute the left's end game.

William म्हणाले...

We've had five or six days of slate gray skies intermixed with cold rain, and there's February yet to come. I was feeling pretty down today, but then I read this message from President Biden. What bright, hopeful words. My mood has changed radically....The President and Elmo should team up and give us an inspirational message like this every morning. It would be even better if Kamala could give her cheering chuckle at the end of every message. In such ways we would all become better people and America a greater nation.

gilbar म्हणाले...

speaking of "hiding behind fake names"..
does anyone (Any One, at all) think for one minute that resident Biden writes these?

Don't worry! Soon you won't need to fret about those annoying emails or about being alone. The government will be installing TVs into every room of every home that will constantly inform you of important things. The volume will be able to be turned down some but there will be no way to turn it off (so you don't miss anything important). Additionally it will improve government services by actually containing a camera and microphone so that the government can hear and see everything you do, 24/7. For your safety of course! They are market testing some cute little names right now. I believe the one way out in front with the focus groups is "big brother". Won't that be just grand!

Curious George म्हणाले...

Who knows. His press secretary, who is fucking moron, posted a Biden tweet on her own account.

“Are Democrats courting the 5-year-old and under vote now?”

The Hating and reviling Taylor Swift seems like a very dumb strategy. But bear in mind that hate is an extremely powerful and effective way to engage people and bind them to you, and that it’s what this segment of the modern Right does best. Taylor Swift is as good an icon of modernity as anyone.

Aggie म्हणाले...

Joe Biden, seeking & finding his own level.


Although, I have to say, when he walks he reminds me of 'The Thunderbirds'

Rusty म्हणाले...

Hi ! I'm from the government. I'm here to keep you company! Are there any guns in the house?

Big Mike म्हणाले...

I’m waiting for Biden to stare straight into the camera and say “You shtill haf relatives in Germany, nicht vahr? Now vote like der lifes depend on it!”

Jaq म्हणाले...

Elmo was “cleared” by the statute of limitations.

What a perfect pair.

Patrick Henry was right! म्हणाले...

Uh, Elmo is a puppet, whose operator makes hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Not sure he will be available if you need help. Your family shoukd be there for you, though. Might want to check with them!!!

AlbertAnonymous म्हणाले...

So some Puppetmaster pulling the strings for Biden decides to make him tweet about a puppet? How Meta!

Should have added a musical overlay of “I’m your puppet” by James & Bobby Purify from 1966

"We have a POTUS who thinks of us and speaks to us as if we are 3 year-olds."

Elmo is smarter than Joe.

robother म्हणाले...

Making sock puppet Brandon use a muppet to communicate is elder abuse, if I ever saw it! We get it, Barack, you're really in charge, but is it really necessary to humiliate Joe so publicly?

TickTock म्हणाले...

"But bear in mind that hate is an extremely powerful and effective way to engage people and bind them to you, and that it’s what this segment of the modern Right does best." That's pretty rich, Rich. Coming from you.

He must not live in New York.

They'll probably come up with names like "Virtual Neighborhood Watch" or "Safety Blanket" or something warm'n'fuzzy like that ... it will be Big Brother before most folks realize it.

Chris N म्हणाले...

I may send you to war, and tax your life away for unpersuasive reasons…but this little fucker right here…ain’t he cute?

victoria म्हणाले...

Well, Meade... if the shoe fits. You all feel like he talks to you like your 3 year olds because, as far as I'm concerned, you all act like 3 year olds. And I'm not even a Biden fan.

Vicki From Pasadena

Jaq म्हणाले...

Rich going on about how Trump supporters are haters reminds me of my wife being mad at me for stuff I did in her dreams.

Skeptical Voter म्हणाले...

I am not hating or reviling Taylor Swift. She's had an incredible career. Travis Kelce's mom says that Ms. Swift seems to have been well brought up and fits right into the Kelce family. My younger daughter--now in her early 50s seems to think the world of "Tay Tay".

So you go girl. Only one problem with all that when it comes to her endorsing Joe Biden.
She has a track record of terrible choices in men (I'll spot you that Travis Kelce may be an exception). In fact many of the songs that she wrote detail her problem with "bad choices in men". So if she does come out and endorse Joe---well that's consistent with her track record.

But --whatever. There's a good chunk of the female world out there who are ardent Swifties--and they will tend to do (and wear) the same thing she does. So Joe is right to court her vote.

BUMBLE BEE म्हणाले...

Topo Gigio says F*CK JOE BIDEN and Elmo!

Static Ping म्हणाले...

That is the mother lode of preteen hair to sniff.

Sheridan म्हणाले...

I think Joe was talking to certain folks in places like California's 28th and 30th CD's. Based on personal direct experience, many of those people are in desperate need of emotional comfort measures including hugs and soothing words of validation and self-worth. Of course, when Adam Schiff is elected senator to replace Ms. Feinstein mere words (or hugs) won't be enough to temper the anguish that all Californians will feel.

joe म्हणाले...

This is a sad commentary on the idea of social interaction. A tweet is not social interaction. "How are you doing?" from someone you don't know and to whom your only connection is that some algorithm thought you would read the post and thus properly direct advertising is not the kind of interaction or "check-in" that is going to help anyone. The fact that some people actually think it is, is why we are having a societal mental health crisis.

Put down your stupid phone, go outside, and ask a real person that you have a real relationship with how they are doing.

wendybar म्हणाले...

Joe would be trying to sniff us if that was true victoria from Pasadena!!

Iman म्हणाले...

Save your Pasadena horseshit for the next time Biden slow walks to the microphone, arms outstretched like Frankenstein… miss vicki.

gilbar म्हणाले...

seems like Disney Corp could use some of Elmo's cheering up!
Judge Dismisses Disney’s Suit Against Ron DeSantis
U.S. District Judge Allen Winsor granted a motion to dismiss the case,
saying that elements of Disney’s case both lacked standing and failed on the merits.

i'm no lawyer; but if:
your case both lacked standing AND failed on the merits.. There's not much of a case left, is there?

Iman म्हणाले...

To clear it up for some folks, we have a POTATUS in the White House.

effinayright म्हणाले...

I imagine the J6 people people Biden's been holding in solitary for three years feel alone, very alone.

p.s. Meade, I'm sure you will ignore the inanity of the Little Old Asshole from Pasadena.

Pull the string and I'll wink at you
I'm your puppet
I'll do funny things if you want me to
I'm your puppet, mm

I'm yours to have and to hold
Darling, you've got full control
Of your puppet

Pull another string and I'll kiss your lips
I'm your puppet
Snap your fingers and I'll turn you some flips
I'm your puppet, mm

Your every wish is my command
All you gotta do is wiggle your little hand
'Cause I'm your puppet
I'm your puppet

I'm just a toy, just a funny boy
That makes you laugh when you're blue
I'll be wonderful, do just what I'm told
I'll do anything for you
I'm your puppet
I'm your puppet

Now, I am definitely a great guy and everything, but based on my experience I recommend you do not put me in charge of everyone. No no no no no.

Tickle you Pedo

Jamie म्हणाले...

We had a priest, a priest, who was 100% in favor of making everything we would consider neighborliness and "Christian charity" into government entitlements. She was and is super progressive. I wonder to this day whether she gets much traction with her flock when she tries to get them to volunteer to do things that she vigorously and publicly (like on Facebook) promotes as the proper role of government.

If Greg Kelly switched 'her' for 'him' he could be talking about Trump's fan base.

Women went +15 Biden in 2020 and accounted for 53% of votes. Can the GOP win if that swings to +20 or +25?

MadisonMan म्हणाले...

RMc म्हणाले...

The Dems actually wanted Elmo on the ticket, replacing Harris. But he angrily refused: "I'm nobody's puppet...!"

Kakistocracy म्हणाले...

Empathy and loving your neighbor are seen as evil concepts by the modern right. I’m just going to believe that Jordan Peterson swearing at Elmo thing is fake because, while it is perfectly plausible, I would prefer that it not be.
