On Saturday, an addled Joe “I’m the Democratic Party” Biden declared that Putin “cannot remain in power,” effectively establishing a U.S. policy of regime change in Russia. This is a potential disaster for Europe, the U.S., and the entire Western world already on the brink of another world war.
In some alternate universe that I am completely incapable of understanding because it defies logic, reason, and geopolitical/historical savvy of even the most scant kind, leftwing pundits heard Biden change long-standing U.S. policy toward Russia on the doddering, incompetent fly . . . and thought it sounded masterful, historic, and just about as leg-tingle-inducing as anything they’ve ever heard in their lifetimes.
Who’s up for a little World War III? Oh, these people.
I don’t need to tell anyone here that President Reagan was calling for the end of a split Berlin not the end of a (then) Soviet leader or his regime. In fact, President Reagan appealed to the Soviet leader to tear down the wall; he did not call for Mikhail Gorbachev to be removed from power.
This is not an insignificant difference. One is an effort to establish democracy by publicly urging the Soviet leader to act of his own accord; one is an off-the-cuff near-declaration of war on Russia, or at the very least, a call to . . . whom? someone somewhere? . . . to remove Putin from power. We know who President Reagan was appealing to, who he asked to tear down the wall. Who exactly does Biden imagine is going to remove Putin from power?
Then, within minutes, the White House walked back this shocking and potentially explosive demand for regime change in Russia.
These leftie World War III-mongering hacks of Twitter were deflated. Actually upset that the White House scrambled to pull us out of yet another fire due to yet another unforced Biden error.
Some of them even lashed out at the White House for trying to moderate Biden’s insane comment.
Okay, that last one is kind of funny. But seriously, did these people think about what Biden said, what it meant, how Putin and the Russian people would hear it? This is not communist-hating JFK identifying with East Berliners’ longing for freedom; this was a U.S. president declaring that he wants regime change in Russia.
Oftentimes when the giddy leftwing fanbois and girls go all atingle over some Democrat’s speech, I can see their point even if I don’t agree, but this time, I can see no way to hear that statement from Biden and see it as anything but a foreign policy disaster.
The White House walking it back should have been a clue to the clueless, but they were dejected and frustrated. I have no words.
