Yup. Same here. I'm vaccinated. But when I read the words "We've been patient, but our patience is wearing thin," I was appalled. That is no way for an American president to address American citizens. It sounds like an angry father scolding his kids who have been naughty. It is, effectively threatening punishment - as if people have been breaking laws.

I wonder if there is any president in US history who has ever spoken to the electorate like this.

When he threatened that his patience was wearing thin I got really skeered! I felt like Cornpop must have felt! But then, I got a surge of adrenaline and felt like challenging Joe to a push-up contest! Or hopscotch, or Tiddlywinks, or however else Real Men like Joe settle these things! C’mon man!!!
