      I agree & I can’t wait to have the Biden/Harris administration begin to serve our country cuz Trump has no family values & doesn’t understand that he works for us that he is a public servant... Trump & his family think we work for them! 😊

      @@Timbergal no I don’t think having a great family & being from a great family is insane do u? Biden won’t have his family work for him in the WH as “senior advisor’s” or as “Middle East peace negotiators” 😂... what I think is insane is that our current President can’t admit defeat! Even a 5 yr old can admit when they’ve lost so so embarrassing to our country & how the rest of the world has lost respect for us...

    Like I would say all the time I'm really thankful and really proud of myself for supporting Hillary Clinton in 2016!! I really wish that she would be our current president right now with Tim Kaine!!! I definitely miss Barack Obama as president so much. He has been such an inspiration to me since 2008 when I was 12-13 years old!!! I miss reasonable, thoughtful and calming leadership!!! I'm really hoping that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris win in November to abolish QANON, to dedicate the memory of RBG and to keep Barack Obama's legacy that he worked so hard at, I'm really hoping that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris win in November officially!! Elizabeth Warren, Eric Swalwell, Bernie Sanders, Amy Klobuchar, Pete Buttigieg and Cory Booker will make great cabinet members!!! Hillary Clinton will make a great US AG!!! Hopefully Barack Obama and Michelle Obama can be members of The Supreme Court!!! The systemic racism in this country needs to end as well!!

      3 years late. it's because they grew up with their irish culture. your background is a big deal in america especially when it comes to discrimination. they seem to have a big and well connected family still in ireland aswell. multiple irish family members have been interviewed and say they're very close with the biden's. joe biden himself is around 60+% irish. which is a pretty large percentage and the biggest irish ancestry of all presidents. the biden's often make trips back down to ireland, they're catholic. joe talked about reading irish poetry, how his mother instilled common irish beliefs etc into them as children. he's even talked about what it's like to have grown up as an irish catholic in the 60s which would've been very different culturally and societally than today. there's nothing wrong with having a genuine love for your roots.

Praying for our United states, I know our president is the best thing that has happened for us going forward, he is a righteous man, what could be better, GOD BLESS THE ENTIRE FAMILY AND GOD BLESS AND KEEP US. IN THE GOOD DAYS BAD DAYS AND INBETWEEN, WE MUST UNITE AS A COUNTRY HE WILL BE A GREAT ENCOURAGEMENT AND AN EXCELLENT LEADER, WE WILL PRAY FOR THOSE THAT DO NOT CARE FOR HIM, GOD BLESS HIM ALL THE DAYS OF HIS LIFE👏🙏

      Todd, do make your judgement about the interviewer's skill, but don't go comparing unrelated, not equivalent situations. This is one of a multitude of background interviews in preparation for PBS' Frontline 2 hour journalistic report. Feinstein is a politician of an opposing party digging for information during "a job interview" for our highest court.
