The apologists for Joe Biden, and they are many, are hard afoot to explain away his latest verbal gaffe.
This time Uncle Joe, speaking to a friendly podcast, blurted out “We have put together, I think, the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics.
Some have labeled it a Freudian slip. Or maybe it was just another of Joe’s abundance of senior moments.
It also could be he was merely backing up my contention for the past year or so, that being the Democrats won’t be caught with their pantsuits down – figuratively speaking – like they were in the 2016 election when they presumed Hillary would sweep to victory without them having to deploy any of what we will call their customary vote enhancement programs.
Democrats won’t let that happen again. Witness efforts to broaden opportunities for faceless people to vote without having to turn up at the polls.
Witness reports of multiple ballot requests in the same name.
Witness efforts to loosen regulations to allow these absentee ballots to be counted even if they are not mailed in time, or do not follow the rules such as requiring legitimate signatures to match the voters’ names.
Make no mistake, the Democrats know they have been forced into running a weak candidate and he’s going to need to be dragged across the finish line.
Biden’s record is checkered at best, both in terms of ethics and consistency. He now has come clean on his goal of eliminating fossil fuels. A Biden election victory would mean we would have the Green New Deal moving full-speed ahead with its estimated $93 trillion pricetag over the next decade.
We have continuing revelations about Biden’s son Hunter. Joe tortures the language in Bill Clinton fashion (It depends on what your meaning of is, is) to deny wrongdoing by him or Hunter.
This flies in the face of first-hand reports from a former Hunter business associate. As to Joe Biden’s corruption, he has the famous video of him bragging about threatening to withhold aid to Ukraine unless a prosecutor was fired. The prosecutor’s offense? He was looking into corruption at a Ukrainian company with whom Hunter was associated.
The mainstream media types, the same people so eager to give credence to even the wildest accusations against President Trump, have chosen to ignore the many troubling aspects of Biden.
And Joe, or the Big Guy as he seems to be referred to by Hunter, seems to be Teflon-coated.
But if you think Joe Biden is pure, ask yourself why there is a book “Profiles in Corruption” by Peter Schweizer, that details Biden’s familial merchandising of his many public positions, yet it seems the Biden family has taken no legal action against the author and his claims.
Biden ads are vintage Democratic playbook stuff.
Vote for Trump and you will lose your Social Security and Medicare, they claim. The truth is, Trump eliminated neither in his first term, and won’t in a second. But if you put the unrestricted ability to spend taxpayer dollars in the hands of Biden and Nancy Pelosi, you will have problems.
Understand that you still might get your Social Security payment monthly in a hyper-inflationary climate Biden and Pelosi would create with infinite handouts, but you might need that entire check to purchase a loaf of bread.
Similarly, Medicare health insurance might be available in theory, but good luck getting actual services from a healthcare system already on the verge of collapse with doctors fleeing due to bureaucratic redtape, an outgrowth of Biden and Obama’s Affordable Care Act.
And that leads us to yet another Biden misstatement, that being healthcare would be lost for millions if Trump was re-elected.
They parade out mothers who claim their child would lose healthcare because they could not afford it under Trump proposals. Not true. The Children’s Health Insurance Program, designed specifically to help children of low-income parents, began in 1997, long before Obamacare.
CHIP helps those who earn too much to qualify for Medicaid, but too little to afford healthcare.
As far as eliminating pre-existing conditions coverage, Trump has specifically denied that on the record multiple times. He wants to replace Obamacare, which is a flawed concept, but not at the expense of the multitudes who have those pre-existing conditions.
That’s the truth. But you will not see it in the campaign ads, which I suppose is understandable. Not so understandable is the abdication by so many media outlets of the obligation to be impartial reporters of the facts instead of conflicted partisans pushing their agendas. They should be challenging Biden’s false assertions. But they stand mute.
We exist in a surrealistic world I could not have envisioned even a few years back.
Cities burn in “mostly peaceful” protests.
Police are vilified for doing their jobs, and that would be protecting the law-abiding members of the populace.
A man who on any given day can’t remember whether he’s running for the Senate or President, is the apparent leader as this election campaign season nears its conclusion,
Welcome to Socialist America.
