Joe Biden’s speech tonight, claiming to be a presidential address demanding free network coverage, was so far over the top its almost indescribable. It wasn’t just an attack on another candidate, it was a Declaration of War in demonic terms on the roughly half of the electorate who voted for that candidate.
Nile Gardener had it right:
“Joe Biden’s address in Philadelphia tonight is one of the most menacing, bitter, angry and divisive speeches in modern US political history. Hard to believe that a US president can stoop to this level, condemning tens of millions of Americans as enemies and a threat to democracy.”
Please watch it. I know you don’t want to, but you must. You need to know. Almost everything he accused “MAGA forces” of wanting are in fact what this president and his party have advocated.
The phrasing was what you would expect in a dictatorship preparing the ground for persecution and purge.
“MAGA Republicans…embrace anger. They thrive on chaos. They live not in the light of truth but in the shadow of lies.”
At the same time, it was pathetic. Christina Pushaw aptly described it:
We are in the American version of the late Brezhnev era. “Led” by a doddering, paranoid, angry fool with aspirations to be a dictator and a sprawling unaccountable bureaucracy all too willing to prop him up.
The visuals were dark, ominous, and militaristic.
The major networks had the good sense not to show it. As far as I could tell, only CNN and MSNBC carried it live.
Watch it. Remember it. Understand that Joe Biden is trying to provoke conflict, he wants it, his handlers want it. They launched this campaign about a month ago. It’s calculated.
