Watching Biden on MTP just now

Husband remarked that he sounded worn out. Could have been the over and over again same questions. He does sound down and tired. He has the right answers though. I hope he gets a second wind.

He is not like Trump who needs constant adulation in order to function. He gets excited doing the people's work every day.

He and I know, no matter how fit, it takes longer to recharge at our age. I hope he gets some rest so he can go on.

That was clear since Day One of his campaign.

The reason is no doubt Beau's death.

As Joe says, he was his soul.
