The confrontational video w/Biden today only helps him. It shows strong, unscripted pushback to NRA [View all]

and the GOP/FOX media machine related to the gun issue.

It was natural and passionate.

Amusingly, Republicans and some on the left are sharing it as something bad for Biden.

Shit, I hope every voter sees it and that it's seen til November.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
