Biden the Uniter; master of pitting Americans against each other

 President Biden leaned into the microphone and announced that he's running for re-election as President of the United States Tuesday. He added angrily that MAGA Republicans are existential threats to democracy. He was then told to pull up the second window and pick up his Sausage McMuffin.

 Joe Biden's hate-speech re-election bid - American Thinker   "Here is the NPR headline, April 26, for its Biden-is-seeking-re-election story: "Biden warns of rights under threat from Trump and 'MAGA extremists' in reelect launch."

"This headline provides eloquent evidence that our president will try to demagogue his way back into the Oval Office come January 20, 2025.

"But more: Please check out this excerpt from the Biden April 25 video announcement, as quoted at Rolling Stone (efforts to unearth the full text of the Biden re-election statement have been unavailing):

"Around the country, MAGA extremists are lining up to take on those bedrock freedoms," he warned as images of Marjorie Taylor Greene, Matt Gaetz, Donald Trump, and Ron DeSantis quickly flashed across the screen. "Cutting Social Security you've paid for your entire life while cutting taxes for the wealthy. Dictating what health care decisions women can make. Banning books. Telling people who they can love. All while making it more difficult to vote."

Biden Delivers One of the Most Divisive, Hate-Filled Speeches in the History of Our Presidency – RedState   . . ."The good news is that President Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. got through his Thursday night primetime speech without any major gaffes. True, he garbled his share of words, as is his custom, and he looked lost at times as hecklers yelled “eff Joe Biden.” And he managed not to stumble too badly as his wife Jill gingerly helped him shuffle to and from the podium. In one breath, he called for unity, in the next he demonized anyone who dares to have a different opinion on his policies.". . .

Joe Biden sells 'Dark Brandon' shirts in re-election campaign (nypost.com)  "This passage amounts to sheer political hate speech, indicating that the incumbent hopes to win another presidential term by throwing demagoguery into a cauldron marked "the politics of hate.". . .

“ 'Let’s Go Brandon” emerged as a popular conservative slogan in October 2021 when a TV reporter mistakenly claimed a NASCAR crowd was chanting “Let’s go Brandon” to celebrate a win by driver Brandon Brown — when they were actually yelling “F— Joe Biden.”

Crime is running riot in Joe Biden's America

  "The Left-wing 'defund the police' attitude is at least partially responsible for the current state of lawlessness nationwide

 "Nero fiddling while Rome burned is a common metaphor for leaders who ignore the flames around them to pursue some other objective. Nowhere is that more true today than in the United States, where Democrat leaders at every level seem to spend their time obsessing over Donald Trump while cities burn with crime. 

"By the end of 2022, the Council on Criminal Justice estimated that the homicide rate across 27 American cities was 34 per cent higher than it was in 2019. Gun assaults in the 11 cities reporting data rose 39 per cent, and motor vehicle thefts by a stunning 59 per cent. 

"And where is this violence occurring? Among the largest US cities, those with Republican mayors have a homicide rate of 9 per 100,000 people. In cities with Democratic mayors, the homicide rate is 16 per 100,000, nearly twice as high. In cities like Chicago, Philadelphia, New York and Seattle, property and violent crimes have risen significantly. 

"In stark contrast to the four years prior, President Joe Biden’s America has wrought chaos and swift decay. While Democrats seem intent on getting Donald Trump on a criminal charge – any criminal charge – they seem to have less time for dealing with the violent crime running wild on the streets. 

"Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is desperate to nail Trump over the Stormy Daniels affair. Meanwhile, his own city is being ripped apart. Major crimes rose by 22 per cent last year, while homicides are still above their 2019 level. Some 433 people were murdered in New York last year, still well up on their 2017 low of 292. '. . .

The cities most greatly aggrieved share a common political thread – they’re all run by Democrats, and not by accident.
