Reposted by terRi SmithAriana Niko @ariananiko.bsky.social · 11/10/2026“Will you shut up, man?” Watching Biden say that to Trump brings back memories. It’s been a year, eight months, and 26 days since America last had a real president. Someone who put the country first and knew what the job meant. I hope we get that kind of leadership back. #Midterms2026 721562
