President JOE BIDEN has a reputation for salty language behind closed doors. But it nearly slipped out in public during his speech at Valley Forge last month to mark the third anniversary of the Jan. 6 insurrection. Animated and angry, he derided DONALD TRUMP and his followers for drawing glee from political violence.

      I agree. I like it when he displays this type of disgust with Trump. Makes him more relatable.

      But, I also kinda get why he doesn’t because I think he wants to portray himself as being a class act, whereas Trump is, well, clearly not.

        Obama was able to sell that image better than Biden ever could in a much longer career. I’d settle for a “straight talking old man Scranton” though
