Joe Biden’s Philadelphia Speech Was Horrible and the Optics Were Even Worse
“I’ve never seen such an angry, rancid speech in which a president attacks the voters that he supposedly works for”
Joe Biden’s speech in Philadelphia on Thursday night was un-American and a disgrace to the office of the president.
The substance of the speech was divisive and hateful to American citizens. The optics of the event were even worse.
Professor Jacobson wrote an excellent response last night, but I want to include a few more reactions.
Charles Creitz writes at FOX News:
Biden slammed for ‘rancid’ Philadelphia speech attacking Americans while flanked by U.S. Marines
President Biden used the pretext of an official presidential address to deliver an “angry and rancid” campaign-style speech indicting the 73 million people who voted for Donald Trump as enemies of American democracy, Washington Times columnist Charlie Hurt told Fox News on Thursday.
Biden declared – with U.S. Marines stationed behind him against a dark red-backlit Independence Hall – that American citizens who support Trump “do not respect the Constitution” and may support violence to achieve political ends.
Hurt said he had never seen a president take aim at about half the American people in what was billed as a presidential address, and therefore the official position of the executive branch of the United States government.
“I’ve never seen such an angry, rancid speech in which a president attacks the voters that he supposedly works for,” he said.
Here’s more from the Daily Wire:
Biden Slammed Across Political Spectrum For Optics Of Divisive Speech: ‘Satanic Ghoul’
Democrat President Joe Biden faced backlash over the speech that he delivered Thursday evening for its dark and divisive tone, as well as its optics.
Biden repeatedly demonized millions of Americans for their political views, calling them “extremists” who present a threat to the U.S., while simultaneously claiming that he wanted to unite the country.
“The whiplash between Biden’s characterization of his political opponents and his calls for ‘unity’ aren’t hypocrisy,” political commentator Inez Stepman said. “He’s communicating that we – those who [dis]agree with his party – are outside the body politic and the bonds of citizenship. A scary speech for a scary time.”
The optics were horrific. It’s not an exaggeration to say that Biden looked like a fascist dictator. That’s what a lot of people saw:
Ironic optics for a speech centered on accusing the opposition of authoritarianism. pic.twitter.com/vX82v7FwFx

"My political opposition is a threat to democracy" he said flanked by the military he controls and bathed in red lights.

Of course, the bootlickers of the liberal media just loved it.
As usual, the media were watching a different speech than the rest of us:
Biden's "reclaiming patriotism!"
"Couldn't agree more with what he said!"
"Fascinating bit of presidential stagecraft!" pic.twitter.com/j7z6j38KGV— Bill D'Agostino (@Banned_Bill) September 2, 2022
The speech was a disgrace and the presentation was an insult. I don’t know how anyone who voted for Biden could not feel embarrassed by this.

The vile and totalitarian Dumb-o-crats can’t run on their manifestly destructive and failed policies and agenda. The Dumbs cannot proffer a positive and optimistic vision for the U.S., only perennial “doom and gloom” rhetoric and scenarios. Hence, the Party’s apparatchiks predictably wallow in demagoguery, hysteria, fear-mongering, incitement, spite, vitriol, vilification and the dishonest slander of political opposition.
That’s why the dotard-marionette currently occupying the White House geriatric ward now feels free to strut about, cosplaying as an obnoxious and vindictive third-world caudillo. The dotard already favors aviator sunglasses as a fashion accessory — all that he’s missing to complete his caudillo costume is a military cap with visor, and, a chest full of campaign medals.
Need to wake up
He was not pushing a political ideology or trying to win hearts and minds
He drew a line in the sand and defined those on the other side as the “enemy”.
He plainly inferred he intends to use force and other means to defeat ( as in a fight not of agendas, politics or compromise- but in physical terms) that “enemy”.
Don’t fall into a false sense of security- look at his body language, inflection, focus- this was the “real” him last night.
This isn’t going away. The left INTENDS TO ACT on this.
We can debate when, where and how but not “if”.
I’d say he was right on and that the fascist pedophile is everything he said and more. Yes, they do intend to act on this because they cannot run on their record, their record is literally the worse in American history. Their record makes Jimmy Carter look like a genius and an overachiever.
Missing the point
Brandon is a puppet- so what he “personally” is means nothing. The puppet masters are creating the speech and mannerisms. Brandon is simply the delivery vehicle.
They ARE NOT INTERESTED in “running” ( a fair and free election), they don’t give a tinkers damn about their “record” or what we think of it or a “vote” or who votes what..
They don’t give a tinkers damn what we think of them or their plans/agenda and they have NO INTENTION whatsoever to negotiate, compromise or give in.
Lastly, they INTEND TO USE FORCE to bring about and enforce their agenda.
We need to stop believing in this “idealist pretext” that somehow they do.
They will TAKE ( by hook, crook or business end of a barrel or gavel) what they want and our rights/freedoms be damned.
We BETTER accept that REALITY now and PREPARE to deal with it at that level or soon we will find ourselves wearing stars and being herded into Ghettos awaiting for “work to set us free”
The speech was carefully planned and orchestrated. I think there are several purposes to this speech:
— Revv up the Democrat base
— Scare voters away from contributing to GOP candidates, as all political contributions are a public record.
— Try to provoke a violent reaction from his opponents so he has an excuse to crack down. In other words, try to provoke a Jan 6 event on steroids.
— Set the stage for some kind of event to stop the GOP from actually taking power if they happen to win on Nov 8. Remember, the new Congress does not take office until Jan 3 2023. That is 2 whole months for stuff to happen.
Carefully planned and orchestrated, indeed.
With optics so bad that they HAD to be deliberate.
So I am left with the question: WHY did The Party deliberately cast Joe on TV as a totalitarian dictator? Because clearly, that is what they did.
What does it gain the swamp to cast Joe as Hitler, and how?
I am seriously bothered by this question. I freely admit I don’t think all that many moves ahead, but this looks like a Fool’s Mate from move one.
Brandon might very well be the puppet but that didn’t stop him from leaning in to excoriating 70+ million voters, not to mention future voters. He can only claim senility so long but this is classic Biden; anger, rage, vicious attacks, and full of shit.
Don’t expect an ability to be embarrassed from people who would vote for the guy who campaigned by hiding in his basement. The guy who has a half century long career of nasty and vile attacks on his competition and anyone who disagreed with, or even asked questions of, him. The one with a history of using other people’s speeches and even their life stories as his own (plagiarism). And who has recently been revealed as the head of a white collar crime family.
They love their dog faces pony soldier and by the signs I see for Democrats all
Over my o ce red neighborhood, they will have loved this speech and will follow the madman to hell…
And don’t forget who liked to take “inappropriate showers” with his own daughter and has a demonstrated record of extremely creepy behavior around girls in public.
For Labor Day, the Biden family will be spitroasting the Rose Garden Bunny.
Actually once the day before as well, since Hunter will be arriving early.
When will they open the first concentration camp? They seem to be headed in that direction.
Not concentration silly, re-education.
You just need to get “smarter.”.. or else.
No, I’d say the concentration camps are a better fit. You can’t get to their way of “thinking” by getting smarter, because they don’t think at all, they feel. Their answer is simple, herd onto cattle cars and then into the showers.
I thought they did already, for the Jan 6 folks, held without bail for how long.
We can only hope it was enough to get a few Kool-aid drinkers to wake up.
Not gonna happen, you can’t fix that kind of stupid.
It wont have any impact on the kool-aid drinkers, but it will very likely make an impression on the independent voters who make up a huge portion of the electorate. I don’t know that they will move in mass to support the Republican candidates, but I suspect that many will refuse to vote for the Democrats and I suspect the same will be true for many traditional Democrats from blue collar union and working class households.
Importantly I think in places like PA it might have an impact on GOPe type voters where there has been a concerted effort by some GOP party leaders there to oppose the party nominee for Gov. and Senator. I hope that some of these self centered leader/losers come to their senses and either oppose the Dems or at least desist in opposing the GOP candidates and even if they don’t that this speech makes clear to the voters that the options are pretty stark.
The historic parallel between Dark Brandon declaring half of Americans being evil and King George III declaring American colonists no longer being under the good graces of the Crown is astounding. It’s history rhyming.
Up until that speech opening the 1776 Parliament in January, American colonists saw themselves as Englishmen engaging in a protest to be treated like Englishmen. King George declared them to be enemies and as such, to consider themselves to be at war with England unless they relent. This is why we ultimately signed the Declaration of Independence. There would not likely have ever been an American Revolution had King George never made that speech.
Same with Dark Brandon’s speech last night. Half of America want to preserve Constitutional law and US sovereignty against a corrupt global governance that exploded onto the scene. Now we are the enemies of state.
I am expecting a lot of fallout within US institutions both in government and private industry and beyond. The wheels have been getting rusty from neglect but we are still the only country on earth capable of pulling ourselves up from our bootstraps and retaking control of the massive abundance of resources we have at hand. We just need to wrest command away from our own corrupt ruling class who by now, are paranoid and distrustful of more and more people around them.
They are panicking and we should see more and more evidence of this from this day on. They are falling apart. Look for it.
+1000. I’m keeping a low profile, Avoiding interactions with my government and waiting. The Dems are putting on a stupid show.
The only thing that stage was missing was a squad of stormtroopers, with Darth Vader standing behind Biden.
#NotMyImperialAlzheimersPresident
It was as if Biden’s handlers said – “Let’s make Joe look like the Villain in a Graphic Novel.
Or like Hitler in ‘The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich‘, raving against and demonizing “enemies of the state” (as defined by his political party).
Reminded me of the scene from The Wizard of Oz where Oz is projecting the wizards skull image with balls of flames framing the image. Found the image online but can’t copy and paste it. I’m sure someone with greater skills than I will shortly make the connection and tweet it.
If the GOP wins Congress (media: Takes over) the media and Biden admin will talk about “governing without Congress” a lot.
That is a very sinister picture. Dark, gloomy, Brandon framed by two faceless “guards” and black flags!!! That was no accident. Every detail of these events is very carefully flagged. Something wicked this way cometh… soon. We’ll see.
Mirror sunglasses would have been a nice touch.

Biden’s speech clarified one more thing….this is the new and real Democratic Party. No more tricky slights of hand, but full on totalitarians. The Party will rule directly or indirectly. Cross them and you will see a rep from one of our many Alphabet agencies.
Don’t think for a second that the horrible optics are a blunder.
This was a calculated move. Somebody worked hard to accomplish this.
/adjusts tinfoil hat/
Think of this possibility (alternative 1):
This was intended. This was intended to be as horrible of optics as we all think it was. To incense the public and give the Republicans impetus to impeach Biden. They even get a few Dems to go along. Harris moves into the Oval Office (the actual Oval Office).
Now, suddenly it’s all smiles and handshakes. And behind those smiles is still the fascism, but subtler and less obvious. But everyone is happy now because the truly scary man is gone. (They probably throw a few appointees under the bus, too.) And the people relax and stop being vigilant.
Alternative 2:
Same setup – intended to be awful and to incense the public.
But, this time the alternative is a very unitary executive strongman. Maybe outside the proper avenue of succession, even, Someone charismatic and bold. Who stomps all over the norms – mainly because the people are so incensed.
And the turning of the Republic away from freedom and rule of law now accelerates.
I stated above what I think the purposes are. He wants to scare people away from contributing to “enemy” candidates since all contributions are public record. The GOP is having trouble fundraising, but the Democrats are rolling in money. They want to provoke their opponents to do violence so they can crack down. And they are planning something big for the event that they lose on Nov 8 anyway.
“The GOP is having trouble fundraising”
And why wouldn’t they? They’re cutting off the party’s own money spigot to all the MAGA nominees, all the ones actual Republican voters actually want.
I have not donated any money to any candidate and don’t plan to unless that candidate can demonstrate that a percentage of the money – any percentage – does not go to the GOP.
Someone said pedoHitler is hot on Twitter. Funny if true.
It is. It’s been trending off and on since the speech from hell (and it pretty much was).
Early this morning, it was the top hashtag at 39%.
If conservatives could spell (sigh) it would have been fully 50%, as “pedohiLTer” came in second at 11%.
LOL

“do not respect the Constitution” and may support violence to achieve political ends.
Of course they support violence to achieve political ends. To believe anything else is to be a liar or an idiot. We do it all the time: most recently in Iraq and Afghanistan. Going back ~250 years: the American Revolution. Back ~150: the American Civil War. The Constitution is only valid as long as the gov’t is following it. And that train left the station over a hundred years ago.
“My political opposition is a threat to democracy”
Said every revolutionary leader ever, once he had the reins of power.
Also, said every dictator ever facing a revolution.
He must be impeached immediately when the new Congress takes over.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! You crack me up!
I don’t know how anyone who voted for Biden could not feel embarrassed by this.
Real people that actually voted for Biden either wanted this or lack enough self-awareness to ever be embarrassed. Otherwise they wouldn’t have voted for him in the first place.
Wow! Just wow! This is truly and inflection point for our Republic. Are the demonrats trying to start a civil war? This isn’t rhetoric, it’s an out and out attack on opposition to their policies. Every Republican running for office should be running an additional showing this wannabe Hitlerite bathed in red light. If Mitch and McCarthy aren’t on the floor of the House and Senate delivering withering denunciations today, then they are complicit in this bullshi$&!
Spoiler: they’re complicit. Big Mitch barely mumbled a few words after the Stasi raided MAL.
“If Mitch and McCarthy aren’t on the floor of the House and Senate delivering withering denunciations today, then they are complicit in this bullshi$&!”
Neither have the guts. I doubt we will hear from Rand Paul, or Ted Cruz.
I also don’t think John Kennedy will be able to muster up a good one-liner.
Mitch made explicit his task years ago – to crush the Tea Party (right after we had delivered the biggest Congressional swing in 100 years and put the GOP back in charge on Capitol Hill). Mitch and the rest of the GOPe, from that moment of victory set their sights on destroying the base rather than doing their job and reining in Barky. The GOP never once attached anything important to any must pass spending bills or anything of the sort. Not a once. All they did was fund Barky and attack the Tea Party.
Wow, the complete lack of self awareness on the part of the Biden* voters is unbelievable. These people screeched “Trump is a FASCIST!” for years.
Yet they think it’s cool for the government to take over the private sector and shut down every business in the country on specious, at best, evidence of a “pandemic.”
They think it’s cool for government to lean on mega-corps to shut down people’s free speech.
They think it’s cool to have a mentally deranged, mentally-retarded idiot spouting off like a dictator, threatening half the country.
I don’t believe this work “fascism” means what they think it means.
Why should we think he wasn’t self aware?. He was self-aware. He gave a victory speech to a defeated people. And he laid down the law. If you notice you’re racist. We all know nothing is worse than that.
Do you know what’s worse than a racist? A pedophile like Biden.
This event had two primary goals. First throw red meat to the d/prog base, second seek to divide the r party. IMO, neither goal was met.
Biden’s remarks about accepting election outcomes can be directed at HRC, Abrams, their surrogates and the media. Not to mention several prominent d/prog who didn’t accept the results of 2016, 2000 and 2004.
His remarks about rejecting violence and political violence in particular are laughable. The d/prog have asserted that speech is violence then use speech and continuing protests v SCOTUS. So either that is violence and must end or it is mere speech. Biden foisted an unwelcome choice upon his party. What might happen in response to a police involved death? Will this create tensions, protests about policies? Isn’t that political speech? Will those protests turn into violence, arson and looting? Biden just unconsciously condemned the BLM and Antifa organized protests because they turned violent. Will he now direct DoJ to seek criminal charges?
Division of their r party isn’t going to spring from this speech. Many have already deserted the r party. Basically those departures fall into two camps; Never Trump and Only Trump. The never Trump took their ball and went home because the base rejected their governing philosophy of endless wars, capital gains cuts and d/prog lite policies. Epitomized by Bill Kristol and many of the folks at National Review their grifting gravy train finally ran off the rails. The only Trump folks will by and large vote r in the general elections and ultimately figure out that working within an established party is much better than wandering the wilderness or attempting to create a viable third party nationwide.
What about all of those who left the Repubs and/or voted for Zho BiDeng because of “mean tweets?” They must number in the millions!
The folks who abandoned the r party for Biden due to style of delivery v the substance of the message (mean tweets) are in the Never Trump camp.
Maybe the next time Ol’ Joe does an appearance on the campaign trail, pipe in a sound track of sieg heil when the audience starts to cheer.
That display was, sadly, not even very much of a surprise. I didn’t expect anything better from that dementia-ridden, retarded pedophile fascist.
This senile rant was the worse use of Marines since the Kenyan had a Devildog hold his umbrella in the Rose Garden. Even the Queen of England holds hers.
But the Queen doesn’t wear mom jeans.
This has ANITA DUNN fingerprints all over it. She is Bidens new apparatchik propaganda minister. She forgot his cape and horns costume which was needed to compliment the Hell backdrop. This reminds me of High Plains Drifter. It is the sequal on a nationwide scale. The USA will destroy itself just like the movie.
Proud to be considered a MAGA enemy of the Jose Dementio authoritarian state
Democrats don’t believe in the concept of citizenship. They don’t like the idea of the nation-state, which is why they support Biden’s orchestration of a foreign invasion of America … which is treason, by the way, and Biden and his people need to be held liable as traitors and given the punishment that treason earns.
The Pearly Gates have St. Peter greeting new arrivals. The Gates of Hell have Dark Brandon.
I like the original speech in V is for Vendetta by High Chancellor Sutler better, and I didn’t have to listen to the whole speech.
This looks like another prelude to pre-election rioting and such. Voter fraud and false flag operations by our own government.
Now he is pretending to walk it back. This man is the threat to democracy and rule of law.
What are the odds that they even allow the election to proceed? I think we’ll figure it out when we wake up one morning to find that all the media we turn to on the right has been silenced, and we hear from the Sovietized media how the glorious campaign to root out and eradicate racists has begun.
The election will proceed, and they intend to win it, but remember there are 2 whole months between election day and when the next Congress takes office. A lot can happen in 2 months. I am thinking that if the GOP actually wins on Nov 8, they might try a nationwide lockdown and interstate travel ban over a new virus so the new Congress can’t take office, or some violent event (which may or may not be domestic) that gives a pretext for Martial Law.
BTW, as horrible as the speech was, the pathetic response from the (phony controlled opposition known as the) GOP is even worse.
81M legal votes my ass. Selected, not elected. And now our leader is Mr. Shit-for-Brains.
Post Turtle
Pretty funny but true!
While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75-year-old Virginia farmer, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man.
Eventually the topic got around to Joe Biden and his role as our president. The old farmer said, ‘Well, ya know, Biden is a ‘Post Turtle”.
Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him, what a ‘post turtle’ was? The old farmer said, ‘When you’re driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that’s a ‘post turtle’. The old farmer saw the puzzled look on the doctor’s face, so he continued to explain. “You know he didn’t get up there by himself, he doesn’t belong up there, he doesn’t know what to do while he’s up there, he’s elevated beyond his ability to function, and you just wonder what kind of dumb ass put him up there, to begin with.”
This is the best explanation of Joe Biden’s presidency.
If criminal Biden was given a mental competency exam by a Professional Mental Health Institution, they would most likely require him to be committed immediately. Hell he gets lost on the White House lawns, has no idea where he is, what date/time it is, where he worked, and can’t even read a teleprompter. He is a total idiot, an embarrassment to the Country, and himself! World leaders do not respect or trust him and he is going to inflict potential severe destruction to the USA and it’s citizens if not removed from office… And the Ho is even worse. She is despised by all, has no experience, her uppity entitlement attitude.
As news agencies around the world overheat their Photoshop computers, trying to offset the green cast in Biden’t face due to the red ambience.
The Democrats have finally achieved their true Antichrist moment.
Joe 1:46: Can anything good come out of Delaware?
When they show you who they are, believe them.
And when they tell you, believe that.
And when they accuse the right of doing something, know that they are the ones actually doing that as well.
