Pursuing, wielding, using, abusing…and, ultimately, losing
Power abhors a vacuum.
Joe Biden certainly knows how to wield his ‘power’ — to transform the country for the worse
Or his behind-the-scenes puppeteer, one Bathhouse Barry Soetero, does, more like.
Joe Biden let slip a telling boast after his latest Dark Brandon speech.
“I understand power,” he whispered into the microphone as the first lady wrangled him off stage to stop him impersonating a Roomba.
While ostensibly a self-deprecating cliché about wives’ control over men, “I understand power” also was a statement of unwavering confidence in his own mastery of today’s political landscape.
It’s hard to admit, given Biden’s manifest frailties and incompetence, but he’s right.
The president does know how to use power to transform the country.
From all available evidence, the so-called pRetend ***”pResident”*** doesn’t even know what year it is anymore. Nor who he is, who he’s speaking with, where he is at any given time, or what his minders brought him there for. Not that Pedo Peter ever was what any sentient soul would call the sharpest knife in the drawer, mind, even on his very best day.
What did Donald Trump achieve of any lasting value in the four years he had power? Clearly, he was a better president on every important measure: the economy, the border, foreign affairs, energy policy.
But every achievement of Trump’s was undone on day one by Biden, and many of his aspirations were foiled by Biden’s Deep State allies.
Power is all Biden has ever cared about. In his dismal first speech of the election season near Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, on Friday, Biden used the word 13 times. He said “insurrection” or “insurrectionists” 11 times, because that is how he intends to hang on to power, by fashioning his entire campaign pitch around Jan. 6 and Trump’s threat to “democracy.”
Biden’s dishonest depiction of the Capitol riot as something far worse than it really was is out of kilter with the way 73% of Americans in a weekend CBS poll see it, as a “protest that went too far.”
But it’s no coincidence that his speech coincided with strategic leaks from special counsel Jack Smith’s Jan. 6 probe, which cast Trump as inciter-in-chief, exactly the question that has been dumped in the lap of the Supreme Court by puerile Biden proxies in Colorado and Maine, as 32 other states similarly consider removing Trump from the ballot on “insurrectionist” grounds.
Yet not one person of the 1,200 charged over the Capitol riot has been charged with insurrection.
And how could they be, prithee tell? What with the batch of unexpurgated J6 tapes having finally—FINALLY—been released into the wild after years kept tightly under wraps, it’s plain to the meanest intelligence that there WAS NO insurrection, not even remotely close to anything like one. Ah, but now we come to the tally of obfuscatory shitlib word-wrangling.
“Democracy” came up 30 times in Biden’s speech, too. Apparently it’s “on the ballot.”
“The alternative to democracy is dictatorship,” he thundered.
It’s a bizarre statement for the president of a nation that was founded deliberately, not as a democracy, but as a constitutional republic, precisely to avoid the “tyranny of the majority,” which James Madison warned about.
That’s why we have an Electoral College, and not a presidential election determined by popular vote, where New York would overrule Iowa.
Biden’s pursuit of power at any cost is behind his insidious new eulogies to “democracy.”
Similarly, he has dropped the word “unity,” which he invoked no fewer than 11 times in his inaugural address back in 2021.
The divider-in-chief has given up even pretending he meant it.
Which indicates, as I’ve long insisted, that far from being “terrified” or “afraid” of us as so many erroneously proclaim, they are instead contemptuous of us—that they now believe their grip on absolute power to be so secure, so unchallengable, that they no longer perceive any necessity to keep the iron fist carefully concealed beneath the proverbial velvet glove.
As time marches ever on, though, this assumption will eventually be proven incorrect. History tells us that every would-be dictator carries deep within himself the seed of his own undoing, whether it be arrogance, greed, recklessness, or some other unlovely hobgoblin of his little mind. It’s an old, old story, going at least as far back as Hubris and Nemesis if not farther still, and it will be no different with our current crop of (mis)rulers.
