The timing was perfect for Joe Biden and the D-MSMC (what I call the Democrat-Mainstream Media Complex). A day before the third anniversary of what is now referred to simply as "January 6," Biden gave a campaign speech discussing the threat to democracy by Donald Trump, and how re-electing him will save our democracy. The New York Times, the leading paper of the D-MSMC, followed suit with an editorial in the first Sunday edition of the year, on January 7, 2024.
The Times: "As president, he (Trump) wielded power carelessly and often cruelly..." How's that exactly? They don't say. "He deepened existing divisions among Americans..." I believe Obama started that, making everything a racial issue. Then Biden furthered the divide, after promising to be a uniter. Obama talked about the deplorables in a manner akin to Hillary Clinton. Biden followed along, with his nonstop attacks on Republicans. I don't care if he refers to them as "MAGA" Republicans, it's divisive.
Biden: "And our campaign is about preserving and strengthening our American democracy." At least one site online says that 10 million people have entered the country illegally under Biden. That's more people than in all of New York City, our nation's largest city. That's more than the individual population of 41 states. How does ignoring the sovereignty of the United States strengthen the United States?
The Times: "(Trump) has repeatedly demonstrated a deep disdain for the First Amendment..." Okay, how about this: "The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit on Friday ruled that the Biden White House, top government health officials and the FBI likely violated the First Amendment by improperly influencing tech companies' decisions to remove or suppress posts on the coronavirus and elections." (Per the Washington Post, 9/8/23.) This part bears repeating: "remove or suppress posts on the coronavirus and elections." That should make it clear why I refer to them as the D-MSMC, which clearly includes social media (except, perhaps, for "X" now).
The Times: "Mr. Trump's forays into foreign affairs remain dangerously misguided and incoherent...he displayed consistent admiration for autocratic leaders..." Let's compare. Trump started no new wars. He defeated ISIS. He pulled us out of the bad Iran nuclear deal. He told NATO allies to start paying their required fair share, or don't assume reliance on the US. Lo and behold, they started to pay up. He refused to fund the Palestinian Authority, as they used US tax dollars to reward terrorists, and their families, for killing Jews. He refused to fund UNRWA, which is a ridiculous UN agency in Gaza, that acts at the behest of Hamas.
Trump moved the US embassy in Israel to Israel's capital city, Jerusalem. Trump recognized Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights. Trump helped to bring about the Abraham Accords, establishing diplomatic relations between Israel and the UAE, Bahrain, and shortly thereafter Morocco and Sudan. But, I forget. The Times main concern is the Palestinians. They did not approve of Trump's policies favoring Israel.
Biden? A disastrous and embarrassing withdrawal from Iraq, leaving behind billions in American weaponry. Lifting sanctions on Iran, allowing the flow of billions of dollars into the coffers of the leading state sponsor of terrorism. Attempting to reenter the Iran nuke deal. Restoring funding to the terrorist supporting PA and UNRWA. Under Obama, Russia invaded Ukraine and Hamas went to war with Israel. Under Trump, Putin did nothing and Hamas did not start another war with Israel. Then we had Biden - Putin launched a massive invasion of Ukraine, and Hamas conducted an unprecedented attack on Israel.
The Times says Trump has threatened "the deployment of the military and the Justice Department, to have his way." What? It was Biden's Justice Department which directed the FBI to investigate parents as possible terrorists, for daring to challenge the woke lies being fed to their children in the public schools. It is Biden's Justice Department that is currently prosecuting the leading Republican candidate for president against their boss. Coincidence? I don't think so. That shows support for our democracy? Decidedly not.
Biden: "Political violence is never, ever, acceptable in the United States political system - never, never, never. It has no place in our democracy. None." Well, his allies in the D-MSMC apparently did not get that message during the summer of nationwide rioting in 2020, calling the "protests" mostly peaceful. I am curious as to how such peaceful protests resulted in nearly $2 billion worth of damages to businesses and government buildings around the country. And when rioters pulled down a statue of Christopher Columbus in her native Baltimore, what did then Speaker Nancy Pelosi have to say? "People will do what they do." She didn't say that about January 6.
Here is a precious line by the Times: "Democracy in the United States is stronger with a formidable conservative political movement to keep diversity of thought alive on important questions, such as the nation's approaches to immigration, education, national security and fiscal responsibility." Excuse me while I stop laughing. If the Times truly believed one word of that, then 95% (99%?) of their editorials and Op-Ed columns would not have a left-wing point of view.
I'll conclude with this. I have my own complaints about many of the unnecessary and improper comments made by Trump. But this simply sounds like a replay of all the allegations made against Trump in 2016, when we were assured that the world would end if Trump won. The world didn't end. Peace broke out in new places. Wars didn't. The economy was good. We were energy independent. Methinks that Biden and the Times are "crying wolf."
