I saw and heard his speech and an hour later made bf watch and listen. It was rivetting. I'm so glad he talked about the attempts of Tr--p to take down democracy and the ability of the country to resist those attempts. I know that's not exactly what you meant, steve. When we say, "Her speech was downright presidential," what does it mean? Does it have a different meaning from "His speech was downright presidential." I hope we find out exactly what that word can mean in the coming years. Anyway, I totally agree with you about leaving the past behind. I no longer follow Tr--p on Twitter. It stopped being entertaining. Welcome to the future.if Joe Biden wasn't downright presidential in the remarks he made.
I'm having trouble with the word presidential. The word seems weighted with 200 years of masculinity. I looked up synonyms for presidential and found: administrative, dominant, ruling, ascendant, controlling, determining, executive, restraining, supreme, and absolute.
