President Joe Biden gave a “Soul of the Nation” speech in front of Independence Hall in Philadelphia the Thursday night before Labor Day.
Biden might as well have called it his “soul-less” speech and delivered it from the 10th Circle of Hell in Dante’s Inferno. It was the meanest, most vindictive, nasty and personal speech any US president has ever delivered against fellow Americans.
During his inaugural address less than eighteen months ago, newly sworn-in President Biden urged all Americans to be charitable and “see each other not as adversaries, but as neighbors” and “open our souls instead of hardening our hearts”.
Echoes of “malice toward none; with charity for all,” yes? Biden promised to be our nation’s healer.
Well, everyone can forget about that now. Biden is no Abraham Lincoln, that is for sure. Biden is simply a presidential tool of the Far Left who does and says what they tell him to do.
If a person stumbled upon Biden’s hellfire speech while channel-surfing, they probably thought it was a Jon Lovitz SNL spoof of the highest order from days long ago. Sadly, it was our President of our United States of America delivering such a god-forsaken speech, not a comedian or impersonator.
Whose bright idea was it to backlight Biden’s speech in blood red anyway? Who coached him to mimic the hand gestures and mannerisms of Hitler and adopt the eerie tone of Emperor Palpatine of the Galactic Empire while he derided and degraded fellow Americans?
Any other political figure at any level of government would have had the presence of mind to look at the speech and the hellish-looking backdrop before delivery and said to his handlers: “This just ain’t right. I was elected to be a healer, not a divider”.
This “speech” had nothing to do with the “soul of the nation.” This vitriolic speech had everything to do with awful poll numbers for Democrats heading into the crucial fall congressional elections.
Poll numbers for Democrats across-the-board have been horrible all year on inflation, gas prices and the economy in general, as well they should be. Democrats are underwater in public opinion polls on crime in the streets and defunding police. A Republican won the 2021 governor’s race in Virginia on the Democrats’ bread-and-butter issue historically, education. Biden’s withdrawal from Afghanistan was an unmitigated foreign policy disaster. His handling of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has been almost as bad.
Democrat pollsters and strategists must have walked into the Oval Office and said: ”Mr. President, we only have one card left to play: ‘Attack Donald Trump’. Our poll numbers show that attacking him is all we have to avoid a catastrophic electoral blowout this fall. So this is what you are going to say in your speech in Philadelphia:
“Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic”. “MAGA Republicans do not respect the Constitution, do not believe in the rule of law. They did not recognize the will of the people and refuse to accept the results of a free election”. “There is no place for political violence in America. Period. None. Ever” and in the very next sentence, “You saw law enforcement brutally attacked on January the 6th”.
Not one word was uttered about all of the Democrats who refused to accept the results of the 2000 presidential election when George W. Bush 43 defeated Vice President Al Gore. Zero mention of how Hillary Clinton concocted the entire Russian Collusion hoax less than twelve hours after she lost to Trump in 2016. No mention of Stacey Abrams never conceding defeat to Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp in 2018. No mention of universal acceptance and outright support by Democrat apparatchiks of the violent, hate-filled “Summer of Love” riots of 2020 in major cities across the nation led by BLM, antifa and George Soros-funded operatives.
President Biden sold his moderate soul to the Devil to get elected in 2020. Here’s a rhetorical question for him to consider for his next “soul of the nation” speech: “What does it profit a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his own soul?”
Selling your soul by personally attacking 75 million fellow Americans as Biden did in a longshot effort to retain congressional majority control for the last two years of a forgettable presidency is a bargain even Dr. Faust would have politely refused.
