"Now we're talking ubiquity. When President Biden isn't wearing one of his many steel (or two-tone) sport watches, you'll likely find him with an Apple Watch. It's unclear why, or for which occasions he chooses the smartwatch out of his watch box, but he's worn it in the Oval, and at the Resolute, just as he has with any of his other watches. "

So when Biden wears it, it's OK. No 'former CIA' writes any open letters, no HN Commies "following orders". When the Vice-President wears it - they are stupid and they are threatening national security.

What a hypocrisy is the whole democratic party. Disgusting propaganda methods akin to Soviets.

Neither of them should have had access to the smart devices… when Obama had gotten a smartphone, it was a locked down BlackBerry. Trump came into office and did not seem too concerned about the IT security risk his unvetted personal phone posed.

Don’t what-a-bout it… they can both do wrong.

There are things to complain about with the Democratic Party, this isn’t it though.

Who cares about Biden? He's history.

Emotional posts like yours don’t really further the discussion of whether it’s good practice for US leaders to wear an Apple Watch.
