I joined Monocle 24’s Georgina Godwin on Wednesday morning for an analysis of US President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address — not flashy, not dramatic but the pragmatism needed for challenges from the Ukraine war to Coronavirus to inflation.
Listen from 29:45:
Joe Biden will always see hope. He declared a “unity speech” in an America which is so divided, which is so polarized that he defies reality.
But you know? I have no problem with a bit of light in these dark years. To tell us that we do not have to give way to resignation, we do not have to give way to the oppressors — yeah, I think Joe Biden is allowed a bit of hope.
I think we are all allowed a bit of hope as we try to cope with the day-to-day.
